2019 Audi Q3 2.0L Diesel · CT19 DLN

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a stable and clean maintenance history. The most recent test conducted on 3 May 2024 at 27,564 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This consistent clean sheet across the last three inspections indicates that the mechanical and structural components have remained within acceptable operating parameters without flagged failures or recurring wear issues. The mileage pattern is significantly low for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,938 miles annually. Between the August 2022 test at 14,952 miles and the April 2023 test at 17,072 miles, the car covered only 2,120 miles. A larger interval of 10,492 miles occurred between April 2023 and May 2024. This low usage suggests short-trip driving or periods of inactivity, which typically results in less mechanical wear on the drivetrain and suspension components. While the MOT record shows no faults, a buyer must physically inspect for issues associated with low-mileage vehicles. Long stationary periods can lead to seized brake calipers, flat-spotted tyres, and degradation of rubber components like suspension bushes or seals. The inspector should check for corrosion on the brake discs and ensure the fluids have not deteriorated despite the lack of use. Given the age relative to mileage, verifying the service history is essential to ensure oil changes were maintained regardless of mileage.
