2014 Audi A3 1.4L Petrol · E10 EAF

The most recent MOT on 6 October 2025 recorded a pass at 81,703 miles, indicating the vehicle meets the statutory roadworthiness criteria at the time of testing. The preceding three annual tests also resulted in passes, and the solitary failure on 9 October 2023 listed no defects, suggesting an administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical deterioration. The pattern therefore reflects a stable maintenance trend. Mileage has risen from 70,235 miles in September 2022 to 81,703 miles in October 2025, an average increase of roughly 4,000 miles per year. For a twelve‑year‑old Audi A3 this is modest usage, implying limited wear on consumable components and no evidence of abrupt mileage spikes or prolonged inactivity. The record shows consistent annual testing with no unexplained gaps. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of tyre tread and sidewalls, as low mileage does not guarantee recent tyre replacement. Inspect brake discs and pads for uneven wear or glazing, and confirm that the rear brake calipers operate freely. Examine suspension bushes, coil springs, and any audible clunking that could hint at hidden wear. A visual check for surface rust, especially around wheel arches and undercarriage, will corroborate the clean MOT history. Confirm that the 2023 failure was resolved and that no latent faults remain before finalising purchase.
