2004 Audi A4 3.0L Petrol · 99 CJ

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT on June 17, 2025, at 15,235 miles. This test recorded only a minor advisory regarding a nearside rear tyre worn close to the legal limit. The overall trend suggests that the vehicle remains mechanically sound for the purposes of road testing, as no significant mechanical failures or structural defects have been flagged across the last five testing cycles. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 22-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 692 miles per year. The data shows consistent, low-intensity usage, with only 148 miles recorded between the 2024 and 2025 tests and just 203 miles in the preceding year. While this low mileage limits wear on the drivetrain and engine components, the long intervals between tests often pose risks related to age-related degradation of rubber components, fluid breakdown, and brake corrosion from sitting stationary. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the suspension and geometry, as the recurring reports of uneven tyre wear in 2020 and again in 2025 indicate a persistent issue with alignment or worn suspension bushes. Given the vehicle's age and low usage, it is also vital to check for perished brake hoses and seized calipers, which frequently occur when cars are not driven regularly. Furthermore, a thorough inspection of the chassis for structural rust is required, as Audi models from this era are prone to hidden corrosion regardless of the low mileage recorded.
