2012 Audi A3 2.0L Diesel · TH02 ALF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT on June 18, 2026. The maintenance trend appears exceptionally stable, as the car has secured four consecutive passes over the last three years. The only failure in the most recent test was a minor non-mechanical defect involving a front position lamp, which was rectified immediately to allow for a pass the following day. This suggests the owner is proactive in addressing safety-related items identified during the annual testing process. The mileage pattern is consistent with a fourteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,400 miles per year. Between June 2023 at 78,423 miles and June 2026 at 89,838 miles, the car covered 11,415 miles, indicating a steady and moderate usage profile. This low annual mileage generally reduces the strain on the drivetrain and heavy suspension components, though the age of the vehicle means that periods of standing can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components and fluid seals that are not captured by mileage alone. While the MOT record is clean of advisories and structural failures, a buyer should still perform a physical inspection of common Audi wear points for this era. Given the low mileage, check the suspension bushes and control arms for cracking, as rubber can perish over time regardless of the distance driven. The lack of recorded brake issues or corrosion in the history is a positive sign, but inspecting the brake discs for pitting and the underside for surface rust remains necessary to ensure the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of inactivity.
