AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a clean pass recorded on 30 December 2025 at 132,241 miles. The maintenance trend shows a shift from reactive repairs to a more stable condition in recent years. While earlier tests were marred by multiple failures, the last two passes in December 2024 and December 2025 were achieved without any recorded defects or advisories. The mileage is consistent with the age of the vehicle, averaging roughly 8,816 miles per year. Usage remained steady between 2020 and 2023, with the odometer moving from 85,734 miles to 117,895 miles over three years. A slight increase in annual mileage occurred between the November 2023 test and the December 2025 test, though the overall accumulation remains typical for a 15 year old Audi A3. A buyer should closely examine the front suspension and steering components. The vehicle suffered repeated failures and advisories for worn suspension arm pins, bushes, and anti-roll bar linkages between November 2022 and November 2023. Although these were resolved to pass the tests, the recurring nature of these faults suggests heavy wear on the front end. The history reveals a pattern of neglect regarding tyre maintenance. Between 2017 and 2021, the car repeatedly failed or passed with advisories for deep cuts in the sidewalls and tread depths below the legal limit. The frequent failures for tyre damage and valve stem issues indicate a previous owner who ignored basic consumables. A physical inspection should verify the current tyre brands and tread depths to ensure the current owner has broken this cycle of poor upkeep.
