2010 Audi A3 1.4L Petrol · RV10 YLM

This 2010 Audi A3 has a low average annual mileage of roughly 5,583 miles, which suggests lighter use than typical for its age, though this can sometimes indicate periods of standing. The most recent MOT from July 2025 passed, but the vehicle shows a worsening trend regarding chassis and consumable wear. There is a recurring pattern of corrosion on the rear lower suspension arms that has persisted since at least 2024. While currently listed as not seriously weakened, this is a progressive issue that will eventually require replacement. There is a clear and consistent failure to maintain tyres and brakes. The car has repeatedly been flagged for tyres worn to the legal limit or wearing on the edges, and the front brake discs have been noted as worn for two consecutive years without apparent rectification. The condition trend is declining, moving from simple tyre wear in 2022 to a combination of suspension corrosion, perishing seals, and neglected braking components by 2025. A buyer should first inspect the rear suspension arms for the extent of the corrosion and check the thickness of the front brake discs. Ensure all four tyres have healthy tread depth and even wear patterns, as the history suggests a habit of running them to the legal limit.
