2006 Audi A3 2.0L Petrol · CX06 LSD

The Audi A3 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 5 February 2026 at 70,671 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass dated 1 November 2023 at 69,660 miles confirms the vehicle has remained free of advisories or failures for over two years. Recorded mileage sits at 70,671 against a 2006 build, averaging roughly 3,534 miles per year. The history shows a tight cluster of entries in late 2022 and October 2023 where the car failed and passed on consecutive days at identical mileages of 67,125 and 69,543 to 69,660, suggesting test re-runs rather than real driving. From the October 2023 pass to the February 2026 test the odometer moved only 1,011 miles, indicating the car spent long periods stationary. The two 2022 and 2023 failures carry no listed defects, so the DVSA data gives no mechanical basis to suspect suspension bushes, brake discs, or corrosion issues. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody rust given the low use and likely damp standing, and verify the reasons behind the back-to-back fail-pass entries with the testing stations. Low annual mileage and a clean recent record imply careful, light use by prior owners rather than neglected consumables. Confirm service history and check tyres, wiper blades, and fluid condition in person, as these wear with time even when the MOT shows no faults.
