2014 Audi A3 2.0L Diesel · EF63 WFR

The most recent MOT on 2025-12-10 recorded a pass with a note that the rear registration plate was deteriorated but not likely to be misread. This issue has appeared consistently in three consecutive MOTs (2023-2025), suggesting a recurring minor defect. While not a safety risk, it indicates potential neglect or exposure to environmental factors. No other defects were recorded in this test. The 2022-12-22 MOT shows a failure due to critical tyre issues: the offside front inner tyre was worn close to the legal limit, and the nearside front inner tyre had a structural tear. These were serious safety concerns, but there is no evidence these issues reoccurred in later tests. The subsequent MOTs (2023-2025) show no further tyre-related defects, implying the problem was addressed. The overall trend in defects appears stable. The only persistent issue is the deteriorating rear registration plate, which has not escalated to a failure. No other major safety or repair risks were noted in the last three MOTs.
