2017 Audi A3 2.0L Petrol · SW17 DZE

This 2017 Audi A3 presents a clean bill of roadworthiness. The most recent MOT on 28 March 2026 at 62,145 miles passed with zero defects, advisories, or failures. The full record shows an unbroken chain of five consecutive passes dating back to 2022, indicating a stable and well-maintained vehicle with no recurring mechanical or structural concerns. The mileage accumulation is consistent and predictable. Between the February 2022 test at 33,930 miles and the March 2026 test at 62,145 miles, the car covered 28,215 miles over roughly four years, averaging around 7,000 miles annually. This aligns closely with the typical UK annual mileage for a car of this age. No sudden spikes or suspiciously low intervals suggest the vehicle has been used regularly rather than left standing for extended periods, which reduces the risk of deterioration from long-term inactivity. With no recorded defects across five consecutive annual tests, there are no recurring fault patterns to flag. The absence of advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake components, or exhaust emissions suggests the previous owner kept on top of routine servicing. A clean MOT record of this depth is relatively uncommon and points to a car that has been properly cared for rather than merely patched up for its annual test. Despite the spotless record, a buyer should still conduct a thorough physical inspection. At nine years old and over 62,000 miles, consumable components such as tyres, brake discs and pads, and suspension joints will naturally have reached a stage where wear is expected regardless of MOT outcomes. A pre-purchase inspection should focus on underbody corrosion, particularly around suspension mounting points and inner wing arches, along with a road test to confirm smooth gear changes and that no brake binding or pulling is present. The MOT record is reassuring, but hands-on verification remains essential before committing to purchase.
