2018 Audi A8 3.0L Diesel · 49 ROC

The vehicle currently holds a satisfactory roadworthiness status following the recent MOT test conducted on 2026-04-08 at 74,948 miles. The maintenance history shows a stable pattern of passing inspections, with no recorded structural or mechanical failures flagged in the subsequent tests. The primary concern noted in the most recent assessment relates to the condition of the front tyres, which were found worn close to the legal limit and on the edges for both the nearside and offside positions. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the vehicle's age, reflecting approximately 9,368 miles per year over the past eight years. The record indicates steady progression, with the vehicle passing tests at 54,630 miles in April 2023 and 59,042 miles in March 2024. A notable failure occurred on 2024-03-22 at 59,042 miles, specifically concerning a cut in the offside front tyre exceeding the legal requirements for ply or cord depth. This recurring issue suggests a potential inconsistency in routine tyre replacement or maintenance. Buyers should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension components, including coil springs and suspension bushes, to check for signs of wear or leaks. Given the history of tyre issues, it is advisable to inspect the remaining tyre tread depth across all four tyres to ensure they meet legal requirements. While the MOT history does not indicate major structural corrosion or drivetrain faults, the consistent tyre advisories suggest a buyer should be prepared for potential immediate replacement of the front tyres.
