2016 Audi A3 2.0L Diesel · AF16 KVG

The 2016 Audi A3 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent test on 14 August 2025 at 95,148 miles which returned a pass with no defects recorded. Across five consecutive annual examinations from 2021 to 2025 the vehicle cleared every test without a single advisory or failure, indicating consistent upkeep and no escalating mechanical concerns. Annual mileage averaged roughly 9,500 miles against the car's ten-year life, a typical figure for this age of vehicle. The records show steady accumulation: 58,630 miles in August 2021, rising to 64,256 by August 2022, 74,246 in August 2023, 86,266 in August 2024, and 95,148 in August 2025. No gaps or sudden spikes appear in the sequence, and the clean sheet across all entries suggests the previous keeper addressed wear proactively rather than deferring consumable replacement. With no advisories logged for suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, binding calipers, or structural corrosion, the MOT history alone reveals no red flags requiring corrective action. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underbody integrity and suspension components, as ten-year-old vehicles commonly develop hidden rust or perished bushes not yet severe enough to trigger tester comment. Given the absence of recorded faults, the prudent step is a routine pre-purchase check of tyre condition, fluid levels, and drivetrain noise rather than targeted fault tracing. The documented pattern implies disciplined ownership, though independent verification of service history remains advisable to confirm intervals beyond statutory testing.
