2020 Audi A3 S Line 35 Tfsi 1.5L Petrol · SM20 WPZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 27 April 2026 at 38,047 miles. While it failed initially on that same day due to an ineffective front windscreen wiper, this minor trim defect was clearly rectified immediately to achieve a pass. The overall maintenance trend appears stable, as the vehicle shows no evidence of recurring mechanical failures or escalating structural issues over the last three years of testing. The mileage pattern is consistent with a six-year-old vehicle averaging approximately 6,300 miles per year. The record shows steady progression from 15,345 miles in August 2023 to 38,047 miles in April 2026. This low-to-moderate usage suggests the car has not undergone heavy motorway stress. Such low mileage typically preserves the drivetrain components and suspension bushings, though it can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based parts, which is evident in the vehicle's tyre history. A buyer should pay close attention to the tyres during a physical inspection, as the record shows a recurring issue of perishing and damage. In 2023 and 2025, the tester flagged multiple tyres for cracking and damage, indicating the vehicle may have sat for long periods or used tyres beyond their age limit. Check the sidewalls for deep crazing and ensure the current set has been replaced with fresh, aged rubber. Since the MOT shows no issues with brake binding, suspension play, or structural corrosion, the primary focus should remain on these consumables and the condition of the wiper blades that recently caused a failure.
