Our Verdict
Exercise caution due to the very high mi
Prospective buyers should prioritise a review of the service history to confirm when the timing belt and water pump were last replaced, as these are critical for this engine at this mileage. Negotiate the price based on the recurring brake disc advisories and the high odometer reading, which increases the likelihood of imminent component failure. Ensure there is evidence of professional repair for the 2024 CV boot failure and the 2023 suspension corrosion.
The 1968cc diesel engine typically provides strong fuel economy, particularly for long-distance driving. However, insurance and tax will reflect its 2007 registration and engine size. Maintenance costs are likely to be higher than average due to the vehicle's age and high mileage, with a particular focus on wear-and-tear items.
Carefully inspect the front brake discs, as they were flagged as worn, pitted, or scored in both 2023 and 2025. Check the nearside front outer drive shaft joint CV boot to ensure the 2024 failure was fully resolved. Additionally, examine the rear lower suspension arms for the corrosion noted in the 2023 MOT to determine if the deterioration has progressed.
This 2007 black Audi A3 diesel has recorded 176,349 miles. The MOT history reveals a pattern of maintenance-related failures, including tyres, indicators, and a CV boot, alongside recurring advisories for brake disc wear. It represents a high-mileage example of a model with a general 82.1% MOT pass rate.
The Audi A3 has an average MOT pass rate of 82.1%, with common failures frequently linked to service brakes and anti-roll bars.
