2017 Audi Q3 1.4L Petrol · LD17 DKY

The 2017 Audi Q3 presents a clean roadworthiness status as of the most recent examination. In the March 2026 test at 41,244 miles, the vehicle passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend across the five available MOT entries is stable and consistently sound, with every annual inspection from March 2022 through March 2026 returning a pass and zero advisories. No worsening mechanical or structural issues appear in the data. Mileage accumulation sits well below typical expectations for a nine-year-old vehicle. The record shows 22,172 miles in March 2022, rising to 25,976 miles by March 2023, then 31,532 miles in April 2024, 38,082 miles in March 2025, and 41,244 miles in March 2026. That equates to an average annual increase of roughly 4,500 miles, confirming light use. No abrupt gaps or rapid accumulation occur; the sparse but clean history suggests the previous owner maintained the car sparingly yet responsibly, avoiding the neglect often seen with higher-mileage examples. Despite the absence of flagged faults, a buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of consumable and structural components that low mileage and prolonged standing can disguise. The tester recorded no corrosion, suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or exhaust emissions concerns across the tests, yet rubber components such as tyres, wiper blades, and flexible brake hoses may have aged rather than worn through use. A physical check should target perishing tyres and degraded suspension bushes given the car's age. The drivetrain and braking system show no historical advisories, but static storage can promote seized calipers or flat-spotted tyres. A pre-purchase examination must confirm free movement of brake calipers and measure brake disc thickness. The MOT record implies conscientious ownership, though physical verification remains prudent before purchase.
