2017 Audi A3 1.0L Petrol · FX67 KCN

The vehicle is currently roadworthy and shows an improving maintenance trend following a period of reactive neglect. The most recent MOT test in November 2025 at 55,267 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the issues identified in previous years have been addressed. This follows a failure in December 2024 where multiple mechanical and cosmetic defects required attention, which were subsequently rectified to pass testing. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,100 miles per year. There is a notable gap in records between the March 2024 test at 43,573 miles and the December 2024 test at 46,452 miles, where the car covered nearly 3,000 miles in nine months. This interval suggests consistent use rather than long periods of standing, which is generally beneficial for rubber components and seals despite the relatively low annual mileage. A buyer should perform a close physical inspection of the tyres, as the MOT history from 2023 through 2024 repeatedly flagged cracking, damage, and perishing across multiple axles. This suggests the vehicle may have sat stationary or been exposed to harsh conditions, leading to dry rot in the rubber. While the brake pads were flagged as wearing thin in late 2024, the buyer should verify the remaining thickness of the current pads to ensure the replacement was carried out. The rear registration plate was a recurring advisory for three years, so the buyer should have it replaced with a compliant unit to ensure visibility.
