Our Verdict
Recommended. This Audi A3 presents a str
Given the 2480cc engine size, this is a high-performance variant of the A3. You should prioritise reviewing the service history to ensure oil changes have been performed at the correct intervals for this specific engine. Check if the corroded brake discs mentioned in the February 2026 MOT have since been replaced, as this provides a clear point for price negotiation.
Verify the condition of the interior and electronics, as these higher-spec models often feature more complex systems. Ensure that any manufacturer warranties or extended cover documents are present, as maintenance on the 2.5L engine can be more costly than on standard A3 models.
The 2.5L petrol engine will result in significantly higher running costs than a standard A3. This includes a higher annual road tax bracket, a higher insurance group, and lower fuel economy. Maintenance costs will also be elevated due to the performance nature of the powertrain and the requirement for premium consumables.
Annual costs will be driven primarily by fuel and insurance. Typical maintenance will involve more expensive tyres and brake components compared to the base model, contributing to a higher overall annual spend.
Pay close attention to the braking system. The February 2026 MOT specifically flagged that front and rear discs were corroded; check for any signs of pitting or uneven wear. This is particularly relevant as aggregate data identifies 'service brake excessively' as a top failure reason for this model.
Check the underside of the vehicle, specifically the undertrays which were noted in the August 2022 MOT. Ensure they are securely attached and not sagging. Finally, inspect the anti-roll bar and suspension components, as these are common failure points across the wider A3 model range according to aggregate MOT statistics.
This grey 2017 Audi A3 Petrol has recorded 48,016 miles as of its last MOT in February 2026. It has passed all five of its recorded MOT tests without a single failure. While the most recent test noted corrosion on the brake discs, the overall record is consistent and the mileage is low for its age.
The Audi A3 has an average MOT pass rate of 82.1%, with common failures typically associated with brakes and anti-roll bars.
