AUDI Q32013 · 2.0L DIESEL

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT test in June 2025 with 85,892 miles and no defects. While the latest report is clean, the maintenance history reveals a pattern of reactive rather than proactive vehicle care. The trend shows a significant failure in mid-2024, indicating that the previous owner only addressed critical safety issues once they triggered a test failure. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,600 miles per year. Between June 2023 and June 2024, the car covered 4,480 miles, while it covered 3,219 miles in the year leading up to the 2025 test. This low annual usage suggests limited mechanical wear on the drivetrain, but it correlates with the degradation of rubber-based components like tyres and bushes as seen in the records. A buyer must prioritize an inspection of the suspension geometry and wheel alignment. The records from 2022, 2023, and 2024 consistently flag tyres wearing on the inner edges or perishing, which indicates a persistent alignment issue or worn suspension components that have not been properly rectified. The 2024 failure involving multiple tyres with structural bulges and exposed cords further suggests that basic consumable maintenance was neglected until the point of safety failure. The braking system also requires scrutiny. The offside rear brake disc and pads were flagged as worn in both 2022 and 2023. While these may have been replaced since, the buyer should check for uneven wear or sticking calipers during a test drive. Given the history of loose undertrays in 2024, a visual check of the underbody for corrosion or loose plasticwork is also advisable before purchase.
