2015 Audi A3 2.0L Diesel · AF65 XOS

The Audi A3 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent passed MOT on 22 May 2025 at 88,848 miles recording no defects. Prior to that pass the same-day test failed on 22 May 2025 at identical mileage yet listed no defects, an administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. The vehicle shows no escalating issues across the available history. Recorded mileage sits at 88,848 against an 11-year life, averaging roughly 8,077 miles per year which is typical for the age. The gap between the 13 October 2023 pass at 76,719 miles and the 11 October 2024 pass at 83,631 miles shows only 6,912 miles covered in a year. From October 2024 to May 2025 the odometer moved just 5,217 miles. The clean record with no advisories on tyres, brakes, suspension bushes or corrosion suggests previous owners kept the car to basic test standards, though the sparse entries limit deeper wear insight. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of brake discs, coil springs and subframe corrosion given the car's age and the unexplained same-day fail in May 2025. The October 2023 fail at 76,406 miles with no defects logged mirrors the 2025 pattern and points to paperwork or tester error rather than neglected consumables. Verify the V5C and DVSA portal to confirm the May 2025 failure cause, as the blank defect field gives no technical clue. Otherwise the A3's history implies light use and adequate upkeep, with no recurring mechanical trend requiring immediate concern.
