2017 Audi A3 2.0L Petrol · KM67 TNX

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT in December 2025 at 60,951 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows signs of improvement following a period of neglect in mid-2024. While the 2024 test revealed multiple failures related to visibility and hardware, the subsequent clean record indicates that the owner addressed these specific faults to bring the car back to a passing standard. At 60,951 miles over nine years, the Audi has averaged approximately 6,772 miles per year, which aligns with typical low-use figures for its age. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with a 13,426-mile gap between June 2022 and June 2023, and another 12,903 miles between June 2023 and June 2024. This steady accumulation suggests the vehicle was not left stationary for long periods, which helps prevent rubber components and seals from degrading. A physical inspection should focus on the braking system and suspension given the recurring issues in the history. The 2023 test flagged thin front brake pads and uneven wear on the rear tyres, which often indicates an alignment issue or sticking brake calipers. A buyer should verify the current thickness of the front pads and check for uneven tyre wear patterns to ensure the geometry-related faults have been properly rectified. The 2024 failure for exposed cords on the offside rear tyre suggests the previous owner ignored critical safety items until the test date. While the windscreen and registration plate issues were resolved, the buyer should inspect the glass for new chips that could lead to structural cracks in the future. There is no evidence of structural corrosion or mechanical failure in the record, meaning the primary concerns remain with standard consumable wear and routine maintenance intervals.
