AUDI A32006 · 3.2L Petrol

The Audi A3 passed its most recent MOT on 29 January 2026 at 156,483 miles with no defects recorded, indicating the vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status. The maintenance trend appears stable, with the latest test showing a clean result after a brief period of test failures earlier that month. Mileage stands at 156,483 against a 2006 build, averaging roughly 7,824 miles per year which is typical for the age. The record shows 148,129 miles at the January 2025 tests and 156,483 by January 2026, a modest annual gain of about 8,350 miles. The DVSA data is sparse, with only five entries and no advisories or defects logged across any test, so no wear pattern or neglect can be inferred from the history itself. The three January 2026 entries show two failures on 18 and 21 January at 155,978 and 156,195 miles followed by a pass on 29 January, yet the record lists no defects for any of those tests. This suggests administrative or presentation anomalies in the DVLA data rather than mechanical faults, but a buyer should still verify the vehicle physically. Given the age and 156,483 miles, inspect suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers, and structural corrosion on sills and subframes. No recurring mechanical faults or advisories appear in the official record, so the previous owner appears to have kept the car to a basic pass standard. A pre-purchase inspection remains sensible to confirm there is no hidden corrosion or worn consumables not captured by the MOT system.
