2021 Audi A3 1.5L Petrol · CF70 ZFT

A spotless MOT history across three consecutive years underscores a consistent roadworthiness profile for this 2021 Audi A3, with the latest test on 28 January 2026 confirming a pass and no recorded defects. The uninterrupted succession of clean results suggests that, at least up to the most recent inspection, the vehicle met the statutory safety and emissions standards without any identified faults. At 34 924 miles the mileage averages roughly 6 985 miles per annum, a figure that sits comfortably within normal usage for a five‑year‑old compact executive. The annual testing cadence shows no gaps, indicating the car has been driven regularly rather than sitting idle for extended periods. Mechanically this level of accumulation typically means that primary wear items such as brake pads, tyres, and clutch (if manual) are likely still within serviceable limits, while major components like the engine and transmission have not been subjected to high‑stress mileage. When you inspect the car, focus on the condition of the braking system: verify pad thickness, disc surface uniformity and listen for any squeal or judder under firm application. Assess the steering and suspension by feeling for knocks or clunks over bumps, and check that the front and rear bushes, control arm joints and anti‑roll bar links operate without play. A visual inspection of the under‑tray and wheel arches for any signs of fluid leaks, corrosion or damaged exhaust brackets will also be prudent, even though none were flagged in the MOT record. Given the clean MOT pedigree, a thorough pre‑purchase check should concentrate on consumables that naturally age with use—tyre tread depth and uniform wear, condition of the battery terminals, and the state of the timing belt or chain if the model employs one. Confirm that all scheduled services have been performed, and consider a full diagnostic scan to ensure no latent electronic faults are present before the next MOT cycle.
