2017 Audi Q3 2.0L Diesel · SW17 JOV

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes over the last five years. The most recent test conducted on 15 May 2025 at 85,150 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating a stable maintenance trend. This suggests that the previous owners have proactively addressed mechanical and safety issues before they reached a failing point during annual testing. The mileage accumulation pattern is remarkably consistent for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,500 miles per annum. Between the May 2021 test at 48,759 miles and the May 2025 test at 85,150 miles, the car covered 36,391 miles, which aligns with typical annual usage for a premium SUV. The regularity of these intervals suggests the vehicle has not been subject to long periods of standing, which often leads to the degradation of rubber seals, fluids, and brake-related issues in the drivetrain components. While the MOT record shows no structural corrosion or mechanical failures, an in-person inspection should focus on components subject to wear at the 85,000-mile mark. A buyer should verify the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs tension, as these are common points of fatigue on this Audi model at this mileage. Given the clean history, the braking system should be checked for signs of thinning discs or sticking calipers to ensure the lack of recorded advisories reflects the actual physical state of the hardware.
