2016 Audi A3 1.6L Diesel · SM16 FEV

The vehicle presents in a stable roadworthiness condition based on the most recent inspection data. The latest MOT test conducted in October 2025 at 118,714 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the car currently meets all statutory safety requirements. This follows a period of clean passes in late 2024 and 2022, suggesting that the mechanical integrity has remained consistent over recent years. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a decade-old Audi, averaging approximately 11,800 miles per annum. The data history shows a steady accumulation of miles, with roughly 7,400 miles covered between December 2024 and October 2025, and another 8,600 miles in the year preceding that. This regular use suggests the vehicle has been driven actively rather than sitting for long periods, which is generally beneficial for maintaining seals and preventing components from seizing or seizing. The only failure in the record occurred in November 2023 at 102,659 miles due to an offside front tyre with tread depth below the legal limit. While this was a minor consumable issue rectified immediately for the subsequent pass, the high mileage necessitates a thorough physical inspection of wear-related components. A buyer should specifically check the suspension bushes for tearing and the coil springs for fatigue, as these often show degradation around the 110,000-mile mark. Given the lack of recorded structural corrosion or brake advisories in the history, the focus should remain on the condition of the drivetrain and the state of the brake discs and calipers to ensure no hidden wear has developed between tests.
