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

The Audi A3 S line 30 TFSI holds a valid roadworthy confirmation from the 14 July 2025 MOT examination at 9,106 miles, with the tester recording no defects. This single clean pass indicates a stable initial maintenance profile, though the absence of earlier tests due to new-car exemption limits trend analysis. The vehicle entered its first test cycle in 2025 and cleared it without advisories on brakes, suspension, emissions, or structure. Mileage stands at 9,106 miles against a 2022 build, producing an average of around 2,276 miles per year. Such low figures point to light commuting or prolonged storage rather than high-speed motorway wear. The DVSA record contains only the 2025 entry, reflecting the statutory three-year test gap; no rapid accumulation or missing-year anomalies appear. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection focused on components vulnerable to low-use deterioration. Standing vehicles often develop surface corrosion on brake discs and exhaust hangers, while tyres may show sidewall cracking despite adequate tread. The tester noted no binding calipers or worn suspension bushes, but these items warrant hands-on checks for seizing and perishing. Examine underbody for structural rust and verify battery health, as infrequent starts accelerate sulphation. The clean MOT provides reassurance, yet low mileage hides latent issues that a static record cannot capture.

Our Verdict

A strong candidate for buyers seeking a

When inspecting this specific 2022 model, focus on verifying the service history to complement the clean MOT record. While the MOT shows no defects, a full service history is essential to ensure the 999cc TFSI engine has been maintained according to Audi's requirements.

Negotiate based on the remaining manufacturer warranty, which should still be active given the 2022 registration. Check for any signs of wear on the S Line specific interior trim and ensure the grey paintwork is free from stone chips, which can be common on low-slung premium hatchbacks.

The 1.0-litre petrol engine is designed for efficiency, likely placing this vehicle in a lower insurance group and tax band compared to larger displacement models. Expect relatively low fuel consumption for daily commuting.

Maintenance costs for an Audi will typically be higher than non-premium brands, but the small engine size and relatively low mileage should keep routine servicing costs manageable. Estimated annual costs include fuel, tax, insurance, and scheduled maintenance.

Although this vehicle's MOT history is currently defect-free, be mindful of common failure points noted in the wider Audi A3 aggregate data, such as shock absorbers and tyres. Given the S Line trim, ensure the larger wheels haven't resulted in excessive tyre wear or sidewall damage.

Check the braking system thoroughly; while no issues were recorded in 2025, the aggregate data highlights 'service brake lagging' as a top failure reason for this model type. Inspect the brake pads and discs for even wear and any signs of scoring.

This 2022 Audi A3 S Line 30 TFSI in Grey shows a very clean initial history, with its most recent MOT in July 2025 passing with no defects at 9,106 miles. The mileage is slightly below the model aggregate average of 8,420 miles per year, suggesting it has been used sparingly. Given its age and Euro 6 status, it remains a modern, compliant choice for urban and motorway driving.

The Audi A3 shows a high average MOT pass rate of 90.7% across 8,374 analysed vehicles, suggesting generally stable mechanical reliability.
