Our Verdict
Recommended for buyers seeking a low-mil
Given the very low annual mileage compared to the model average, it is important to verify the service history to ensure the engine has been maintained. Diesel engines can be prone to carbon buildup if used for only short trips. Check for evidence that the September 2023 advisories regarding the rear brake discs and the nearside front Macpherson strut bush were addressed.
Negotiate based on the age of the vehicle and any pending maintenance. Ensure all rubber components and belts are inspected, as these can perish over time regardless of the low odometer reading.
The 1968cc diesel engine is designed for efficiency, though annual road tax will depend on the specific CO2 emissions of this 2013 variant. Insurance groups for the Q3 are typically mid-range, reflecting its premium positioning and safety features.
Maintenance costs for the 2.0L diesel are generally predictable, but parts and labour at Audi specialists will be higher than for budget brands. Expect typical costs for diesel particulate filter (DPF) care and periodic brake servicing.
Pay close attention to the front suspension; specifically, check the nearside front upper Macpherson strut pin and bush, which were flagged as worn in 2023. Similarly, inspect the rear brake discs for any remaining pitting or scoring mentioned in the 2023 MOT record.
While not specifically failed on this vehicle, the wider model data indicates that anti-roll bars are a frequent point of failure for the Q3, so this should be checked for excessive play or wear during a test drive.
This blue 2013 Audi Q3 has recorded 57,922 miles as of its September 2025 MOT, which is significantly lower than the model average. The vehicle passed its most recent two tests in 2024 and 2025 without any defects. A 2023 failure was recorded for tyre tread depth, alongside advisories for suspension and brake components.
The Audi Q3 maintains a solid aggregate MOT pass rate of 86.0%, with anti-roll bar issues being the most common failure point across the model range.
