2017 Audi Q3 1.4L Petrol · X14 KAW

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following a clean pass in the June 2026 test at 75,887 miles. This most recent inspection shows no recorded defects, suggesting that the previous issues regarding consumables were addressed. The maintenance trend shows a clear pattern of reactive upkeep rather than proactive replacement. The tester consistently flagged tyre and brake wear in previous years, but the absence of advisories in the latest record indicates the vehicle is currently up to date with its essential maintenance requirements. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with typical usage for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,400 miles per year. The record shows steady growth from 37,969 miles in July 2020 to 75,887 miles in June 2026. There are no significant gaps or periods of prolonged inactivity visible in the data. The progression from 64,770 miles in June 2024 to 70,029 miles in June 2025, and finally to 75,887 miles in June 2026, demonstrates a predictable and regular driving pattern. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the tyres and braking system. The MOT history reveals a recurring trend of neglected tyre maintenance, with multiple tests between 2022 and 2025 flagging tyres worn close to the legal limit or showing uneven wear. The June 2025 test specifically noted four tyres nearing the legal limit and one with scalloped damage, which often points to alignment issues or suspension bushing wear. Similarly, the front brake pads were flagged as wearing thin in 2023, 2024, and 2025, indicating that the owner tends to wait until components are near the end of their service life before replacing them. While the most recent test is clear, the history of uneven tyre wear suggests a need to inspect the suspension geometry and any potential damage to the wheel arches or steering components. Checking the remaining tread depth and the condition of the brake discs will confirm if the recent maintenance has been thorough. The vehicle lacks any recorded structural corrosion or serious mechanical failures, making the recurring consumable issues the primary area of concern for a prospective owner.
