2012 AUDI A43.0L Diesel

The vehicle's current roadworthiness status appears stable following the successful MOT test on 10 June 2025 at 113,410 miles. While the record shows two instances of failure immediately preceding successful passes, the lack of recorded defects suggests these were likely minor issues that were rectified quickly. The most recent inspection shows a clean certificate with no advisories, indicating the vehicle has met the minimum legal requirements for structural and mechanical integrity at the time of testing. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a typical usage pattern for a 14-year-old vehicle. The car has covered approximately 113,410 miles, averaging roughly 8,100 miles per year. The data shows a steady progression from 98,973 miles in June 2023 to 106,009 miles in June 2024, and finally 113,410 miles in June 2025. This incremental growth suggests regular use rather than long periods of standing, which helps mitigate the risks of seized calipers or perished rubber components often found in low-mileage vehicles. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection to verify the condition of consumables that the MOT does not always capture in detail. Given the age and mileage, focus should be placed on the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and drive shafts. Although the MOT history is clean, the previous failures suggest a need to check for recurring issues like minor leaks or worn wiper blades. Specific attention should also be directed toward the underside of the vehicle to check for significant corrosion on the exhaust system and subframes. While the recent tests show no structural defects, the transition from failure to pass in both 2024 and 2025 implies that certain components required attention to meet standards. Verifying the service history alongside the MOT record will confirm if these repairs were carried out by a professional or were merely superficial fixes.
