2016 Audi Q3 1.4L Petrol · WO16 LGL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a recent shift toward neglect in the most recent inspection. While the car maintained a cleanion between 2022 and 2024, the June 2025 test at 41,973 miles identified two defects. This suggests that while the vehicle is mechanically sound, basic routine maintenance of consumable items has recently begun to be overlooked. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,200 miles per year. There is a consistent pattern of use, moving from 25,123 miles in June 2022 to 41,973 miles in June 2025. This low-intensity usage typically means less wear on the engine and internal drivetrain components, but it increases the likelihood of rubber-based parts deteriorating due to age and stationary time rather than purely mechanical friction. A buyer must inspect the tyres thoroughly, as the most recent test flagged the offside front as being worn to the legal limit and uneven on the edge, indicating a potential alignment issue. Furthermore, the nearside front tyre shows signs of perishing or cracking, a common issue on low-mileage cars where the rubber hardens over time. The failure in 2022 regarding the wiper blade was a minor item, but it reinforces that external rubber components should be checked for weather damage across the vehicle.
