2003 Audi A4 TDI SE 1.9L Heavy oil · TKZ 6011

The Audi A4 TDI SE presents a currently roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 22 July 2024 at 279,901 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable across the available history, with the vehicle clearing its last test cleanly and showing no advisories or recurring mechanical faults in the supplied records. At roughly 23 years old, the car carries 279,901 recorded miles, equating to about 12,170 miles per year, which is high for its age and points to sustained regular use rather than long periods standing. Mileage climbed from 263,467 at the failed January 2022 test to 269,854 by the March 2023 pass, then to 279,901 by July 2024, a steady annual accumulation of around 8,000 to 10,000 miles in the later entries. The DVSA data is sparse, with only five tests logged and no defects ever listed, so the clean record gives little insight into component-level wear beyond confirming no test-stage failures on emissions, brakes, or structural integrity at those points. A buyer should still inspect suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs in person, as high mileage and age make these consumable and structural items prone to fatigue even when an MOT logs no advisories. The two failed tests in January 2022 and March 2023 at 263,467 and 269,285 miles respectively recorded no defects, which suggests administrative or presentation issues rather than mechanical faults, but the tester's lack of noted wear offers no assurance on corrosion or drivetrain condition. Given the 279,901-mile figure and 2003 build, expect degraded exhaust emissions control and possible structural rust beneath sills or subframes. The previous owner's pattern of passing cleanly implies basic statutory upkeep, yet the sparse history means a physical inspection of binding calipers, tyre tread depth, and chassis welds remains essential before purchase.
