2012 Audi Q3 2.0L Petrol · LX62 VFV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a remarkably clean maintenance history. The most recent MOT test on 27 November 2025 at 88,412 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, following a failure just one day prior. This isolated failure suggests a minor administrative or consumable-related issue that was rectified immediately, rather than a systemic mechanical decline. Since 2022, the Audi has consistently passed its inspections without advisories, indicating a high standard of mechanical upkeep by previous owners. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-to-use profile, averaging approximately 6,300 miles per year. Between December 2022 (72,024 miles) and December 2023 (76,864 miles), the car covered 4,840 miles, followed by an increase of 6,334 miles between the December 2023 and November 2024 tests. This steady, low-volume accumulation generally reduces the wear tear on the drivetrain and suspension components, though the age of the vehicle still poses risks regarding the degradation of rubber seals and fluid integrity regardless of the distance travelled. Given the lack of recorded faults in the MOT history, a physical inspection should focus on age-related degradation that the MOT test does not cover. A buyer should specifically examine the condition of the control arm bushes and coil springs, which tend to fatigue over fourteen years even with low mileage. The brake discs should be checked for corrosion or surface pitting, as low-mileage vehicles can sometimes suffer from uneven oxidation. The structural integrity of the chassis appears sound based on the clean records, but checking for minor rust in the sills remains a standard precaution for a vehicle of this era.
