2004 Audi A3 2.0L Diesel · MB04 CSV

The most recent MOT on 2023-06-16 recorded a pass at 171,797 miles. However, the vehicle had two failures in 2023 (2023-02-15 and 2023-06-13), both at the same mileage. No defects were recorded in any MOT entry, including these failures. This suggests the issues were likely minor or non-critical, but the repeated failures indicate potential recurring problems with the vehicle’s systems. The MOT history shows no pattern of defects or safety-critical issues. The 2022-01-25 pass and 2020-11-14 pass also had no defects. While the 2023 failures are concerning, the absence of recorded defects implies they may not have involved significant mechanical or safety risks. However, the frequency of failures in a short period raises questions about the vehicle’s reliability and maintenance history. The vehicle is 22 years old with 171,797 miles, averaging 7,809 miles per year —a typical figure for its age. This mileage suggests moderate use rather than heavy wear, but it also means components like brakes, suspension, and electrical systems may show age-related deterioration.
