2018 Audi A3 1.5L Petrol · SL18 YJS

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by the most recent MOT test in April 2026 at 75,112 miles which passed with no recorded defects. This clean result indicates that the previous owner addressed any minor concerns raised in the prior year. The maintenance trend remains consistent, as the car has avoided major mechanical or structural failures over the last five years of testing. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,400 miles per annum. Between April 2022 at 40,083 miles and April 2026 at 75,112 miles, the car covered roughly 35,000 miles, showing regular driving patterns. There are no significant gaps in the testing history that would suggest the vehicle sat stationary for long periods, which often leads to seized calipers or perished de-lamination of rubber components. The only notable issue in the history occurred in May 2025 at 67,062 miles, where the tester flagged both nearside and offside rear tyres for cracking or perishing. This points to age-related rubber degradation rather than tread-related wear. While the vehicle passed the subsequent 2026 test without defect, a buyer should verify that these tyres have been replaced with fresh rubber to avoid sidewall failure. Since the record shows no recurring advisories for suspension bushes or brake corrosion, a physical inspection should focus on checking the current state of the brake discs and looking for any minor fluid leaks to ensure the chassis remains dry.
