2020 Audi A3 Technik 30 Tfsi 1.0L Petrol · AB03 TRY

The Audi A3 presents as roadworthy following the most recent MOT pass on 22 September 2025 at 36,154 miles, with the maintenance trend stable across its recorded history. The tester recorded no defects at that test. This clean result follows a failed attempt three days earlier on 19 September 2025 at the same mileage, where the DVSA system logged no defects; such a no-defect failure typically points to an administrative or presentation error at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a six-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 6,026 miles per year. The records show 25,349 miles at the 7 September 2023 test, rising to 30,517 miles by 20 September 2024 and 36,154 miles by September 2025. The annual increments of around 5,000 to 6,000 miles indicate consistent light-to-moderate use with no sudden high-mileage bursts or unexplained gaps. The sparse, clean MOT history offers little evidence of neglected consumables or deferred structural repairs. A buyer should still commission an independent physical inspection despite the clean record. The absence of advisories across all four tests means suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, and underbody corrosion received no flagged attention from 2023 to 2025. Low annual mileage can allow moisture-related corrosion or perished rubber components to develop unnoticed during short trips. Given the 19 September 2025 no-defect failure, the buyer should obtain the full DVSA failure and retest documentation to confirm no concealed mechanical issue prompted the initial rejection. Verify the vehicle has not stood idle for extended periods that could affect brake caliper operation or tyre sidewall condition ahead of purchase.
