AUDI S42006 · 4.2L PETROL

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-12-19 at 124,870 miles showed minor issues: an oil leak (8.4.1 (a) (i)) and a coolant leak, both non-excessive. These findings, alongside earlier tests, indicate a stable maintenance trend with no significant deterioration. The 2024 and 2023 tests revealed tyre wear and lighting faults, but no critical failures. The 2023 test included a failed inspection due to tyre tread below legal limits and windscreen damage, though subsequent tests resolved these. Overall, the car remains roadworthy but requires attention to recurring minor issues. Mileage progression shows a steady 6,244 miles per year, aligning with its 20-year age. The 2022-10-12 test at 107,049 miles recorded a dim offside registration lamp, followed by a 2023-09-28 test at 115,975 miles with multiple advisories. A gap of 13 months between the 2023 and 2024 tests suggests possible infrequent maintenance, though the 2024-10-02 test at 119,961 miles showed no major faults. The 2025 test at 124,870 miles confirmed continued compliance, albeit with persistent oil and coolant leaks. A buyer should inspect the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs for wear, as tyre tread issues and leaks may indicate neglected maintenance. The windscreen damage and registration plate lamp faults require visual verification. Corrosion in the exhaust system or structural integrity should be checked, though no such issues were flagged. The vehicle’s history suggests basic upkeep but no severe mechanical risks, provided recurring leaks and tyre wear are addressed promptly.
