AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2012 Audi A3 presents a clean roadworthiness status. The most recent test on 21 March 2026 at 100,228 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the maintenance trend across the full history is stable, with every annual examination returning a pass and zero advisories. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a 14-year-old car, averaging roughly 7,159 miles per year. The record shows 78,125 miles at the June 2022 test, rising to 82,820 by June 2023, 87,248 by June 2024, 90,240 by April 2025, and 100,228 by March 2026. The step from 90,240 to 100,228 in under twelve months marks the only period of above-average use, though still moderate. No standing gaps or abrupt odometer jumps appear in the data. The DVSA history flags no recurring faults, suspension wear, brake defects, or structural corrosion across any entry. A clean sheet of this length implies the previous keepers addressed consumables before each test rather than letting advisories accumulate. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of coil springs, suspension bushes, brake discs, and underbody corrosion given the vehicle's age and 100,228 miles. The MOT record confirms legal roadworthiness but does not examine component life remaining beyond the test day.
