2017 Audi A3 1.6L Diesel · WR67 UEK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following an MOT pass in February 2026 at 73,054 miles. However, the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach. While the most recent test showed no failures, the previous entry flagged both front tyres as worn close to the legal limit with uneven wear on the shoulders. This suggests the owner waits until components are near failure or legal limits before replacing them, which can lead to increased wear and tear on related mechanical components between service intervals. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical annual use for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,100 miles per year. Between February 2023 and February 2026, the car covered 22,016 miles, showing a steady usage profile. There are no significant gaps in mileage that would suggest long periods of stagnation, though the recurring mentions of tyre perishing and cracking over three years indicate the vehicle may spend time parked in environments exposed to the elements, accelerating rubber degradation despite the relatively low distance driven. A buyer should closely inspect the suspension and braking system. The record shows repeated advisories for damaged offside rear tyres from 2023 through 2025, alongside a 2023 failure for thin rear pads and a structural tyre bulge. The uneven shoulder wear on the front tyres noted in 2026 suggests a potential alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that require a physical under check. Furthermore, the history of pitted and scored rear brake discs noted in 2025 indicates the braking components are nearing the end of their functional life and may require replacement to ensure consistent stopping performance.
