Our Verdict

A strong contender for those seeking a powerful diesel executive car, provided the service history is complete. The exceptionally clean MOT record suggests a well-maintained example of the 3.0L A4 variant.

Focus your attention on the service history, specifically looking for evidence of timing chain and water pump maintenance, which are critical for this engine displacement. Since the MOT history shows no defects, you should negotiate based on the age of the tyres and the remaining brake pad life, as these are wear-and-tear items that wouldn't necessarily trigger a failure until they are critical.

Ensure you verify the ownership history and check for any gaps in the service book. Given the 3.0L engine's power, check for any signs of oil leaks around the engine bay, as these can be costly to rectify on the A4 platform.
