2018 Audi Q3 2.0L Diesel · AB12 WEB

The 2018 Audi Q3 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 3 November 2025 at 80,977 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of clean results since October 2022. Annual mileage sits at roughly 10,100 miles, typical for an eight-year-old vehicle. The records show steady accumulation: 55,910 miles in October 2022, 67,847 at the November 2023 pass, 73,862 by November 2024, and 80,977 by November 2025. A single anomaly appears on 14 November 2023, where a fail was logged at 67,846 miles with no defects cited, immediately followed by a pass at 67,847 miles the same day. This points to an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault, and the owner corrected it without delay. The DVSA history raises no advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion across the five entries. Such a clean sheet suggests the previous keeper kept on top of consumables and avoided neglect, though MOT passes with zero advisories do not confirm component condition beneath test thresholds. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of the braking system, underbody for corrosion, and suspension articulation despite the clear record. The same-day fail and pass in November 2023 warrants a check of the VOSA failure reason code to rule out a genuine rejected defect. Otherwise, the Q3's documented history supports a sound used purchase.
