AUDI A32012 · 2.0L Diesel

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a successful MOT test on 22 December 2025 at 111,381 miles. While the most recent result is clean, the history immediately preceding this pass indicates a period of instability or non-compliance. The car failed consecutive tests on 15 and 16 December 2025 with only 17 miles recorded between the attempts, suggesting that specific faults were identified and rectified quickly to meet minimum standards. Despite this recent cluster of failures, the maintenance trend appears stable with no recurring defects recorded over the previous two years. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per annum. A significant gap of 10,178 miles occurred between October 2023 (91,132 miles) and December 2024 (101,310 miles), followed by another 10,071 miles in the twelve months leading up to the December 2025 tests. This steady accumulation suggests regular use rather than long periods of standing, which is generally beneficial for engine seals and mechanical components. The lack of advisories in the last three passes indicates that the previous owner likely addressed wear items before they reached critical failure points. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the components that caused the dual failures in December 2025, as the digital record does not specify the mechanical reason for those declines. Given the age and mileage, a close look at the suspension bushes and coil springs is necessary, as these are common points of wear on this chassis. The inspector should also check for signs of corrosion on the exhaust system and brake lines, despite the clean history, to ensure no hidden degradation is occurring. The structural integrity of the vehicle remains sound based on the absence of rust-related advisories in the recorded history.
