2016 Audi A3 1.6L Diesel · FL66 FVM

The 2016 Audi A3 shows a stable, clean roadworthiness trend across its recent MOT history, with the most recent test on 25 August 2023 at 89,316 miles returning a pass and no defects recorded. Three consecutive annual tests passed without advisories, indicating no worsening mechanical faults or escalating wear patterns in the period examined. Mileage rose from 63,564 at the 3 September 2021 test to 76,639 by 26 August 2022, then to 89,316 by 25 August 2023. That equates to roughly 12,000 miles between 2021 and 2022 and 12,700 miles between 2022 and 2023, above the lifetime average of about 8,900 miles per year but still moderate for a ten-year-old hatchback. The record stops at August 2023, leaving a near three-year gap to today's date of 8 July 2026 with no further tested mileage disclosed. The absence of recorded advisories on tyres, brake discs, suspension bushes, or corrosion across all three tests suggests the previous owner kept basic consumables within limits. A clean sheet gives no evidence of skipped upkeep such as repeated tyre-tread failures or binding calipers. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection before purchase. With roughly 89,000 miles and no test data since 2023, components like coil springs, exhaust emissions, and structural integrity under wheel arches need visual confirmation for rust or fatigue. Verify actual current mileage and confirm no undocumented lay-up period caused seized suspension or flat-spotted tyres.
