AUDI A42008 · 1.8L PETROL

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status having passed its most recent inspection on 29 October 2025 at 75,685 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable as the car has consistently achieved passes following initial re-test failures. While the record shows a pattern of failing in both 2024 and 2025, the lack of recorded defects on the pass certificates suggests that minor, consumable-related issues were rectified immediately prior to the tests rather than indicating a systemic mechanical failure. At 18 years old, the recorded mileage of 75,685 miles is notably low, averaging approximately 4,200 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage between tests, with 9,497 miles covered between October 2023 and October 2024, and another 6,522 miles between October 2024 and 2025. This low annual mileage suggests less wear on drivetrain and engine components, but it increases the risk of age-related degradation such as perished rubber or fluid-related seals which occur regardless of distance travelled. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension components and brake lines, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from seized calipers or perished suspension bushes. Given the age of the Audi, a thorough check for structural corrosion on the subframe and sills is essential, as the MOT record does not show a history of rust-related advisories. Verify the state of the tyres for dry cracking, as low-use patterns often lead to rubber hardening before the tread depth reaches legal limits.
