2015 Audi A3 1.6L Diesel · DC65 XLS

The Audi A3 presents a currently roadworthy status following the most recent test on 27 November 2025 at 158,335 miles, where the vehicle passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend across the supplied MOT history is stable, showing no advisories or mechanical faults flagged at any stage from 2022 through to 2025. A failed entry on 27 November 2025 at the same mileage was logged with no defects recorded, immediately followed by a pass on the same date, indicating an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical concern. The recorded mileage of 158,335 at the 2025 test reflects an average annual accumulation of roughly 14,394 miles, which is high for an eleven-year-old vehicle and points to sustained motorway or commuter use. The jump from 128,870 miles at the 21 November 2022 test to 150,491 miles at the 21 November 2023 test shows over 21,000 miles covered in a single year, a period of heavier use than the subsequent 5,000-mile interval to November 2024. The DVSA data is sparse in fault terms, with every pass carrying a clean sheet and no corrosion, suspension, or brake issues noted by testers. Given the clean record and absence of recorded advisories, the previous owner appears to have maintained basic test compliance, though the high overall mileage means in-person inspection should still target wear-prone items not always caught at MOT. The buyer should physically examine front suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc thickness for fatigue consistent with 158k miles of use. Check underneath for early structural rust at sills and subframes, and verify the condition of consumables such as tyres and wiper blades that the tester did not flag.
