2016 Audi A3 1.4L Petrol · FT16 KVV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear trend toward improving mechanical presentation. The most recent inspection conducted in December 2025 at 76,914 miles returned no defects, indicating that the previous owner has successfully addressed earlier wear-related issues. This clean result follows a flawless pass in late 2024, suggesting that the car is currently maintained to a high standard regarding operational requirements. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,700 miles per annum. The record shows regular usage with steady intervals of roughly 8,000 to 9,000 miles between annual tests. There is a brief gap between July 2021 and November 2021 where the car covered only 2,232 miles, but the annual figures remained stable thereafter. This predictable mileage accumulation reduces the likelihood of unexpected fatigue failure on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to high-mileage examples. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the tyres and alignment geometry, as these were recurring faults in 2019, 2020, and 2023. The tester previously flagged perishing, cracking, and uneven wear on the rear tyres, which often points to incorrect alignment settings or worn suspension bushes. While the recent 2024 and 2025 tests were clean, verifying the current tread depth and evenness is essential to ensure these issues have not returned. Given the lack of recorded structural corrosion or brake failures in the history, the primary concerns remain standard consumable wear and the condition of the rubber suspension components.
