2017 Audi A3 2.0L Diesel · RF66 UEV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a maintenance trend that shows signs of improvement. The most recent MOT test conducted on 2 July 2025 at 72,988 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that previous issues identified in earlier inspections have been addressed. This transition from multiple advisory items to a clean pass suggests the current owner is taking proactive steps toward rectifying safety and compliance faults. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,110 miles per annum. There is a notable gap between the January 2022 test at 51,012 miles and the July 2022 test at 56,494 miles, representing over 5,000 miles in six months. Since then, the car has covered roughly 16,500 miles over three years, maintaining a steady and predictable usage profile that typically results in standard wear on consumable components rather than excessive drivetrain strain. A buyer should pay close attention to the tyres and suspension alignment during a physical inspection. The 2024 test at 67,563 miles flagged perishing and cracking on both rear tyres, while the 2023 test at 62,561 enough noted a nearside front tyre worn to the legal limit on the edge. These recurring issues with tyre wear often indicate incorrect alignment or worn suspension bushes. While the 2025 test was clean, verifying the even wear pattern across all four tyres is essential to ensure the geometry is not causing further premature degradation.
