2018 Audi A3 1.5L Petrol · LL18 ABK

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, having maintained a clean record through its two most recent inspections. The test conducted in June 2025 at 36,814 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the car currently meets all safety and emissions standards.This follows a clean pass in June 2024, suggesting that the owner has addressed any minor issues and that the mechanical condition remains consistent over the last two years. The mileage pattern is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,600 miles per year. There is a visible gap in usage between May 2021 and June 2022, where the car covered only 5,805 miles over thirteen months. While low mileage generally implies less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, long periods of standing can lead to secondary issues such as brake caliper corrosion or degradation of rubber-based suspension components. The history shows two failures in 2021 and 2022, but these were resolved as the subsequent tests showed no advisories. Since the recent records show no recurring faults, a buyer should focus on physical signs of age associated with the low-mileage operation. Inspect the brake discs for surface pitting or rust, which often occurs when a vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. Check the tyres for flat spotting or sidew cracking, as rubber ages regardless of how much it is driven. Given the clean MOT history, the structural integrity and suspension bushes should be visually inspected to ensure they haven't become brittle despite the low mileage.
