2015 Audi Q3 2.0L Petrol · LO65 FFD

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthiness rating of PASSED, but the MOT record indicates a significant trend of deterioration in the most recent testing. The most recent test on 2025-12-05 at 44,254 miles was PASSED, yet the preceding test on 2024-12-06 at 42,103 miles was FAILED, a failure specifically linked to the nearside and offside front headlamps. This sequence demonstrates that the vehicle's mechanical condition has not been maintained over the past two years, with the most recent failure occurring just three months prior to the current date. Regarding the mileage pattern, the vehicle has accumulated approximately 4,023 miles per year, which is consistent with its age but lacks the typical accumulation associated with heavy use or long periods of inactivity. The data points are relatively sparse and clean, with no gaps or rapid mileage spikes that would suggest aggressive driving or frequent stopping. The consistent mileage suggests the vehicle has been driven in a controlled manner, potentially with lower load or extended driving times, which may mitigate wear on the drivetrain and suspension components. Given the recurring faults and the recent failure, the vehicle requires immediate inspection of structural integrity and critical components. The most recent test flagged binding rear brakes and minor corrosion on brake discs, while the previous failure highlighted offside front headlamp issues. A buyer must inspect the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake pads to rule out a binding condition that could have been exacerbated by the recent failure. Furthermore, the history of cracked or perishing tyres indicates that basic upkeep, such as tyre inflation and rotation, has been skipped, which compromises the structural integrity of the vehicle's undercarriage. The vehicle should be evaluated for structural rust and the condition of the exhaust emissions system, as these are critical for long-term safety and performance.
