2022 Audi A3 S Line Edition 1 35 TDI S-A 2.0L Diesel · HG72 KAU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, following a clean MOT pass on 19 November 2025 at 28,920 miles. This result indicates a stable maintenance trend despite a technical failure just one day prior. The previous failure was due to a nail in the nearside front tyre and a significant cut in the nearside rear tyre reaching the ply cords. The immediate rectification of these faults suggests the previous owner was responsive to safety-critical defects once identified by the tester. At 28,920 miles over four years, the car has averaged approximately 7,230 miles per year. This usage pattern is consistent with low-mileage commuting, which typically results in reduced wear on mechanical components such as suspension bushes, brake discs, and drivetrain assemblies. The narrow gap between the failure and the pass in November 2025 shows that the issues were isolated to consumable safety items rather than systemic mechanical failure or deep-seated structural neglect. A buyer should perform a physical inspection of the remaining tyres to ensure the replacements were of a consistent quality and that no other sidewall damage remains present. Given the low mileage, the focus should shift to checking for potential dry rot on rubber components if the vehicle has stood for long periods. Verifying the condition of the brake discs for surface pitting is also advisable, as low-use vehicles can sometimes suffer from atmospheric corrosion on the rotors if not driven frequently.
