Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for buyers seeki
Focus on the current state of the tyres; the October 2025 MOT noted both front tyres were worn to 3mm, which is close to the legal limit. Check if these have been replaced since the last test to avoid immediate expenditure.
Verify the service history for the 1.8L petrol engine, ensuring oil changes have been performed at regular intervals. Given the 2022 advisories regarding brake discs and pads, confirm that these components have been refreshed during subsequent services.
The 1.8L petrol engine offers a balance of performance and efficiency, though fuel costs will be higher than smaller city cars. As a 2016 model, it falls into a standard tax bracket for its emissions, and insurance groups for the TT are typically mid-to-high due to its performance nature.
Maintenance for Audi models can be premium, especially for genuine parts. Expect annual costs to be higher than a budget hatchback, particularly for high-performance tyres and brake components.
Inspect the front tyres specifically, as the most recent MOT recorded 3mm tread on both the nearside and offside front. Check the front brake discs and pads for thickness, referencing the advisories from September 2022 to see if they were ever replaced.
Based on aggregate data for the Audi TT, inspect the headlamps for clarity and the exhaust system for leaks or corrosion, as these are among the top failure reasons across the wider model population.
This black 2016 Audi TT has recorded 72,140 miles. The MOT history shows five consecutive passes between 2021 and 2025. While the record is clean of failures, recent advisories highlight wear on the front tyres.
The Audi TT has a respectable aggregate MOT pass rate of 82.8% across over 132,000 vehicles.
