2015 Audi Q3 2.0L Diesel · BF15 XNJ

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 07 March 2026 at 73,244 miles, indicating it is roadworthy at the time of the last inspection. The maintenance trend shows a transition from significant mechanical failure in late 2023 to a pattern of minor neglect regarding consumable items. While the structural and suspension issues identified in 2023 appear to have been rectified, the recent advisories regarding tyre condition suggest that the current owner is deferring basic maintenance. The vehicle is currently in a stable state, though it requires immediate attention to its rolling stock to ensure compliance and safety. The recorded mileage of 73,244 miles over an eleven-year lifespan aligns with typical usage patterns for this class of vehicle. The accumulation of mileage remains consistent, with roughly 9,600 miles added between the March 2025 and March 2026 tests. There are no concerning gaps in the MOT history that would suggest long-term storage or odometer discrepancies. The vehicle has seen steady, moderate use, which generally benefits mechanical components like seals and gaskets that can degrade during prolonged periods of inactivity. Prospective buyers should prioritise a physical inspection of the suspension and tyres. The 2023 failure highlighted excessive wear in the front suspension arm bushes and a fractured coil spring, so verifying the quality of the replacement parts used during that repair is essential. The current advisories for perishing rear tyres and uneven wear on the offside front tyre indicate a potential need for a four-wheel alignment check, as irregular wear patterns often point to lingering geometry issues. Inspect the front shock absorbers for any progression of the oil misting noted in 2023, as these components may be nearing the end of their service life given the vehicle's age.
