2012 Audi A3 1.6L Diesel · FN12 WMY

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 9 August 2025 at 130,059 miles with no defects recorded. Across the five tests from August 2022 to August 2025 the car has consistently passed, showing a stable maintenance trend with no recurring faults. Between the August 2022 test at 93,769 miles and the August 2025 test at 130,059 miles the odometer increased by roughly 36,300 miles, averaging about 12,100 miles per year. This rate is a little higher than the typical 9,300 miles per year expected for a 14‑year‑old Audi A3 but still falls within a normal range for mixed use. The duplicate entry for 4 August 2024 lists both a pass and a fail at 117,351 miles with no defects recorded, indicating a probable administrative glitch rather than a mechanical problem. With no defects flagged in the history, a buyer should focus on the usual wear items: front and rear suspension bushes and coil springs, brake discs and pads for uneven wear or corrosion, tyre tread depth and condition, and the exhaust system for leaks or excessive smoke. A thorough visual check of the underbody, especially around the wheel arches and sills, is advisable to catch any early rust that may not yet have triggered an advisory. Finally, confirming that the service book aligns with the mileage shown on the MOT certificates will help verify that routine maintenance has been kept up to date.
