2016 AUDI A42.0L PETROL

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent test in November 2025 at 57,848 miles. The maintenance trend shows a slight shift from perfect records to reactive servicing of consumables. While the car enjoyed three clean years between 2021 and 2023, the two most recent inspections indicate the onset of brake component wear, suggesting the vehicle is now entering a phase where mechanical components require regular attention. The mileage profile is notably low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,785 miles per year. Data shows consistent usage patterns with the mileage rising from 39,975 miles in October 2021 to 57,848 miles by late 2025. This low mileage generally implies less strain on the drivetrain and engine but can sometimes lead to seizing of brake components or the degradation of rubber-based suspension elements if the car sits for long periods between uses. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system due to the recurring advisories for thin brake pads. The tester flagged thin rear pads at 53,612 miles in October 2024 and thin front pads at 57,848 miles in November 2025. You must verify the thickness of the brake discs and check for any uneven wear or sticking calipers. Additionally, the deteriorated rear registration plate noted in 2024 should be checked to ensure it has been replaced and remains clearly legible to avoid compliance issues.
