2016 Audi Q3 1.4L Petrol · AV16 YNU

The vehicle's overall roadworthiness is currently passing, as the most recent test on 2026-06-09 at 100,568 miles was passed with no recorded defects. However, the maintenance pattern shows a clear worsening trend, evidenced by a second failure on 2025-07-14 at 95,193 miles. This indicates that the vehicle has not undergone basic upkeep since the first MOT, leading to accelerated wear on critical components. The mileage accumulation is uneven, with a significant gap between the two most recent tests. The first test at 100,568 miles was passed, but the second occurred at 95,193 miles, a drop of 5,375 miles. This rapid depreciation suggests that the vehicle has been used for extended periods with minimal maintenance, resulting in accelerated wear on suspension parts, brakes, and drivetrain components. The lack of a third test date at this mileage level indicates that the vehicle has not been serviced since the first MOT, which is a major red flag for the buyer. Given the recurring faults and the severe lack of maintenance, the buyer should inspect the vehicle in person to assess the condition of the suspension, brakes, and drivetrain. The history reveals that the front suspension bushings and arm pins have been worn but not causing excessive movement, which suggests that the structural integrity of these components is compromised. The brakes, while failing to exhibit a binding condition in the most recent test, have likely accumulated excessive wear over the intervening years. A thorough inspection is required to identify any corrosion or rust that may have obscured the original condition of the braking system and to verify the status of the exhaust emissions, which have been flagged as a potential issue in the MOT record.
