2016 Audi A3 2.0L Diesel · DX66 LGD

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent maintenance history over the last four years. The most recent test on 17 October 2025 at 101,617 miles resulted in a pass following a minor failure for a non-functional nearside front position lamp. This is a trivial electrical issue and the lack of recorded advisories across all previous tests suggests that the vehicle has been maintained to a good standard without significant mechanical or structural degradation reaching the tester. The mileage pattern is typical for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per annum. Between September 2022 at 71,221 miles and October 2024 at 91,710 miles, the car covered roughly 20,500 miles, indicating steady annual use. The subsequent 10,000 miles recorded between the October 2024 and October 2025 tests confirm this regular driving habit, which generally helps prevent components like brake calipers and seals from seizing due to long periods of inactivity. While the MOT record is clean of mechanical advisories, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on high-wear items typical for an Audi over 100,000 miles. Inspect the control arm bushes and coil springs for signs of tearing or corrosion, as these often fail at this mileage interval. Given the lack of recorded brake issues, the buyer should verify the thickness of the pads and check for uneven disc wear to ensure the previous owner has not neglected routine friction maintenance.
