2019 Audi A3 1.5L Petrol · 72 MNP

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 2026‑06‑01 at 64,168 miles with no defects recorded, confirming current roadworthiness. The maintenance trend shows improvement after a February 2023 failure at 41,072 miles, where brake fluid contamination, a missing hydraulic reservoir cap and front‑tyre tread deficiencies were noted. Subsequent tests in February 2023, March 2023, November 2023, December 2024 and the latest June 2026 inspection have all been clean, indicating a stable and resolving condition. At seven years old, the 64,168‑mile total averages roughly 9,200 miles per year, which is typical for this model. The interval from January 2022 (30,911 miles) to February 2023 (41,033 miles) saw an increase of about 10,100 miles in 13 months, slightly above the average annual rate. Later periods have been steadier: roughly 8,000 miles between November 2023 and December 2024, and about 11,100 miles between December 2024 and the latest test. The MOT record is relatively complete, with no extended gaps that would obscure usage patterns. A buyer should inspect the brake system thoroughly, checking fluid colour and level, verifying the hydraulic reservoir cap is present and sealing correctly, and ensuring the calipers and discs show no signs of contamination or binding. Front‑tyre condition must be examined for tread depth below 1.6 mm and uneven wear, as the 2023 failure highlighted these issues. Suspension bushes and shock absorber mounts should be inspected for corrosion or excessive wear, given the mileage. A visual check of the underbody and exhaust for rust is also advisable, as age and mileage can promote structural degradation. Overall, the recent pass and the absence of recurring defects suggest the vehicle has been well maintained, yet a pre‑purchase inspection is essential to confirm that the resolved brake and tyre problems have been fully addressed and that no new wear has emerged.
