2016 AUDI A11.4L Petrol

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a successful MOT test on 11 June 2025 at 93,578 miles. The maintenance trend shows a period of instability during the most recent testing cycle, as the car failed two consecutive tests in May and June 2025 before passing. While the final result indicates the vehicle meets minimum standards, the immediate failure at 93,578 miles suggests that specific defects were identified and rectified quickly to achieve compliance, indicating a reactive maintenance approach compared to previous clean records. The mileage profile remains consistent with a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,350 miles per annum. There is a notable gap of 15,613 miles between the November 2022 test at 67,363 miles and the May 2024 test at 82,976 miles. Since then, the car has covered over 10,000 miles in roughly 14 months. This steady usage suggests the vehicle has not sat for long periods, which typically results in predictable wear on consumable components such as suspension bushes, brake hardware, and rubber seals. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the areas that likely caused the early 2025 failures. Since the record does not list the specific defect codes for those failures, it is vital to check for signs of weeping from brake calipers, worn coil springs, or play in the control arm bushings. Given the mileage is approaching 100,000 miles, the structural integrity of the chassis regarding corrosion and the condition of the exhaust system require close scrutiny. The transition from clean records in 2024 to multiple failures in 2025 implies that components are now requiring attention as they reach the end of their service life.
