2014 Audi Q3 2.0L Diesel · PE14 OLT

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass on 23 February 2026 at 94,519 miles with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent trend of clean passes over the previous three years. While a momentary failure occurred on 25 February 2025, the vehicle passed the retest the following day, suggesting a proactive approach to resolving immediate minor issues rather than a systemic failure to maintain safety standards. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,800 miles per year. Between February 2023 and February 2026, the car covered 24,980 miles, showing a steady rate of use. The interval of 8,684 miles between the 2024 and 2025 tests indicates regular operation, which is generally beneficial for mechanical components as it prevents the seizing of seals and degradation of rubber components often associated with long periods of inactivity. Given that the record shows no recurring mechanical faults or advisories, a physical inspection should focus on preventative wear common to an Audi Q3 of this age. A buyer should verify the condition of the suspension bushings and coil springs, as these often show fatigue around the 100,000-mile mark. The brake discs should be checked for thinning or excessive pitting, as the MOT does not measure thickness, only the presence of binding. The clean history suggests the vehicle has been maintained according to standard requirements without significant structural corrosion or recurring mechanical failures.
