2013 Audi Q3 2.0L Diesel · SM62 TYT

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passes over the last four years. The most recent test on 11 December 2024 at 88,735 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, despite a failure on the same day which listed no specific faults. This anomaly suggests an administrative error or a re-test immediately following a minor correction, but the vehicle has maintained a clean record across subsequent annual inspections. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,800 miles per year. Between December 2021 and December 2024, the car covered 9,680 miles, indicating a steady but low usage rate of roughly 3,200 miles annually. This low annual mileage typically reduces the wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it can sometimes increase the risk of rubber-based parts, such as suspension bushes and tyre sidew, degrading due to age rather than mechanical stress. Because the MOT record shows no recurring mechanical advisories or failures, a physical inspection should focus on common Audi-specific wear and tear for this age. A buyer must check the front control arms and suspension bushings for tearing, as these often perish on older SUVs regardless of mileage. You should also inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or deep pitting, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from seized calipers after sitting. The structural integrity of the underbody and exhaust mounting points warrants attention to ensure no hidden corrosion has developed since the last clean test.
