2014 Audi A3 SE TDI 1.6L Heavy oil · CM53 NOV

This vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 2 April 2026 at 120,525 miles passed with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes over the last three years, suggesting the car is being maintained to a standard that meets minimum legal requirements. The mileage is typical for a twelve year old vehicle, averaging roughly 10,000 miles per year. There is a notable gap in the testing history between January 2020 and September 2022, during which the vehicle covered 9,370 miles. Since 2023, the mileage accumulation has remained steady, increasing by approximately 6,500 to 9,000 miles annually. The record shows several failures in 2022, 2023, and 2024, yet the DVSA data lists no specific defects for these failures. This is an unusual discrepancy that often indicates administrative errors or very minor failures that were rectified instantly. Because the record lacks specific fault data, there are no recurring mechanical trends such as suspension bush wear or brake disc corrosion to flag. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on common wear items for a TDI engine at this mileage. Check the condition of the timing belt and water pump, as these are critical service items not captured by an MOT. Inspect the suspension components and brake calipers for signs of seizure or leakage, as the lack of recorded advisories does not guarantee the absence of age-related degradation.
