The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in June 2026 with 167,109 miles. The maintenance trend shows signs of improvement following a significant failure in May 2025. While the 2025 test revealed multiple mechanical and safety faults, the subsequent pass just six days later with no recorded defects indicates that the previous owner addressed the necessary repairs to bring the car back to a standard operating condition. At 23 years old, the mileage of 167,109 miles represents an average usage of approximately 7,266 miles per year. This is consistent with a low-mileage profile, which typically limits the wear on the drivetrain and interior components. The record shows steady mileage between intervals, with roughly 3,000 to 4,000 miles covered between annual tests from 2023 through 2026. This regularity suggests the vehicle is used consistently rather than sitting stationary for long extended periods. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the offside front drive shaft to ensure the split CV boot noted in 2025 was properly replaced and that the joint remains free of grease leakage. The slight lift on the nearside front suspension recorded in 2023 also warrants a physical check of the coil spring and strut mounting, as these components are prone to fatigue on Audis of this era regardless of low mileage. The supplementary restraint system warning lamp from the 2025 failure is a critical item that must be verified as cleared on the instrument cluster to ensure the airbag system is functional. Given the age of the vehicle, a thorough check for structural corrosion on the sills and rear wheel arches is also essential, as these are common areas of failure for this specific model that.
