2021 Audi A3 S Line ED 1 35 Tfsi Mhev SA 1.5L Petrol · RY70 ANM

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, though the maintenance trend shows a recent shift toward component-related wear. While the car passed its 2024 inspection without any defects, the most recent test on November 7 2025 at 38,066 miles identified pitting and scoring on both the nearside and offside front inner brake discs. This indicates that the braking components are reaching the end of their effective life, likely due to environmental corrosion or usage patterns. The mileage pattern is consistent with a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,600 miles per year. The gap of 8,045 miles recorded between the November 2024 and November 2025 tests suggests steady, regular use rather than long periods of stationary or heavy accumulation. This low mileage profile often contributes to the surface corrosion seen on brake discs if the vehicle sits for extended periods without sufficient friction to clear the rust from the metal surface between tests. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the front braking system to determine the depth of the scoring and the condition of the pads. Since the tester flagged both front discs as worn, a full replacement of discs and pads is likely required to ensure optimal stopping performance. The buyer should also verify the items removed from the driver's view prior to the 2025 test to ensure no lingering obstructions or safety issues remain in the cockpit or windscreen area.
