2013 Audi Q3 2.0L Diesel · AY13 UGL

The vehicle currently lacks a valid MOT certificate following a failure on 27 July 2026 at 151,347 miles. While the record lists no specific defects for this most recent failure, the lack of a current pass renders the car road-unworthy. Prior to this, the maintenance trend appeared exceptionally stable, with clean passes recorded in May 2025, January 2024, and September 2022. Mileage accumulation has remained consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging roughly 11,642 miles per year. The usage pattern shows a steady increase, moving from 47,734 miles in February 2016 to 151,347 miles by July 2026. There are no suspicious mileage drops or unexplained gaps in the testing cycle that would suggest periods of prolonged standing or odometer tampering. The historical record is unusually clean for a thirteen year old diesel with over 150,000 miles. The only noted defects occurred in March 2019 at 74,021 miles, where the tester flagged thin front and rear brake pads. This is typical consumable wear and does not indicate a systemic mechanical failure. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on high-wear items that the MOT may not have highlighted. Given the mileage, check for play in the suspension bushes and the condition of the Quattro drivetrain components. Inspect the underbody for corrosion and verify the service history for timing belt and water pump replacements, as these critical engine components are due based on the vehicle's age and mileage regardless of the clean MOT record.
