2014 Audi A3 1.4L Petrol · HW64 AHC

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a remarkably stable maintenance trend over the last decade. The most recent inspection conducted on 15 August 2025 at 39,692 miles resulted in a clean pass, continuing a streak of defect-free tests dating back several years. This consistency suggests the vehicle has been well-maintained and has not suffered from recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation in recent years. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a twelve-year-old Audi, averaging approximately 3,300 miles per year. Between the August 2024 test at 37,417 miles and the August 2025 test at 39,692 miles, the car covered only 2,275 miles. While this low usage reduces typical wear on the engine and drivetrain components, the long intervals between tests suggest the car may sit stationary for extended periods, which can lead to the degradation of rubber components, seals, and fluid chemistry. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by age and inactivity rather than mileage. The 2018 test at 18,958 miles flagged both the nearside and offside front tyres as being close to the legal limit and worn on edges, indicating a potential alignment issue at that time. Given the low annual mileage, it is vital to check for flat spotting on the tyres, surface corrosion on the brake discs, and cracking in suspension bushes from lack of use. Additionally, inspect the undercarriage for signs of rust, as low-mileage vehicles often develop surface oxidation regardless of the distance driven.
