2015 Audi A3 1.2L Petrol · PL64 AAE

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on its consistent history of clean MOT results. The most recent test conducted on 30 March 2022 at 63,680 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the vehicle met all minimum safety standards at that time. While the record shows failures in 2020 and 2022, the subsequent passes without advisories suggest the previous owners addressed any identified faults immediately. The mileage pattern is notably low for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,800 miles per year. Data shows a significant gap between the March 2020 test at 48,834 miles and the March 2022 test at 63,680 miles, representing nearly 15,000 miles in two years. This low annual usage reduces mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain, though long periods of inactivity can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based components. The recorded MOT is now over four years old, which means the vehicle is currently overdue for a roadworthiness test. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that suffer from age rather than distance-related wear. Check for perished suspension bushes, cracked sidewalls, and leaking brake lines which are common on low-mileage cars that sit. Given the time since the last inspection, a thorough check for corrosion on the exhaust system and structural integrity points is essential to ensure that the lack of recent data does not mask the current state of the chassis.
