2014 AUDI A11.4L PETROL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a pass in December 2025 at 54,746 miles, but the recent maintenance history reveals a trend of deferred repairs that culminated in a significant failure. The December 2025 failure at 54,737 miles highlighted a multitude of defects including lighting failures, suspension wear, and critical brake components. While the car passed the test eight days later, the volume of faults suggests the previous owner only addressed issues when forced by a test failure rather than performing preventative maintenance. At 12 years old, the recorded mileage of 54,746 miles is low, averaging approximately 4,562 miles per year. The data shows consistent low annual usage, with roughly 2,700 to 3,800 miles covered between each annual test. This low-mileage profile often leads to age-related degradation of rubber components rather than mechanical wear, which is consistent with the split wishbone pivot bushes and perished anti-roll bar dust covers identified in the late 2025 inspection. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the braking system, as the record shows a recurring pattern of thin pads and pitted discs dating back to 2022. The 2025 failure specifically noted offside rear inner pads below the 1.5mm limit and discs that were heavily lipped and ridged. Particular attention should be paid to the front geometry, as the history flagged worn suspension arm bushes and drop links, which can cause steering instability and uneven tyre wear despite the low mileage. Verify that all lighting elements and the registration plate have been properly rectified, as these were points of failure in the most recent test.
