2008 Audi A4 2.0L Diesel · MW08 AEP

The vehicle is roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 21 January 2023 at 161,489 miles. The history demonstrates a stable trend; no major safety‑critical failures appear after the 2019 exhaust advisory, and the only recurring items are minor cosmetic or consumable warnings. Mileage averages roughly 9,000 miles per year, consistent with the 2008‑model age. Between 21 January 2022 (157,024 miles) and 21 January 2023 the car added 4,465 miles, indicating modest use. An earlier jump from 124,886 miles on 13 March 2018 to 147,994 miles on 30 July 2019 suggests a period of higher utilisation, but the overall pattern shows no abrupt spikes or long gaps in testing. The record flags a persistently damaged windscreen (noted in 2021, 2022 and 2023) and deteriorating front registration plates (2021, 2022, 2023). A stop‑lamp failure appeared in the 22 January 2022 fail, while a nearside registration‑plate lamp was inoperative in the 18 January 2021 pass. Tyre wear close to legal limits was recorded in 2011, and a near‑front tyre showed slight damage or cracking in the 2023 advisory. Prospective buyers should therefore inspect the windscreen for cracks or chips, verify that all registration‑plate lamps operate correctly, and assess the condition of the front tyres for any perishing rubber. A visual check of the exhaust for smoke or abnormal vapour, and a brief test of the brake lights and stop lamps, will confirm that the minor advisories have not progressed to structural concerns.
