2013 Audi A4 1.8L Petrol · AE63 EXF

The Audi A4 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 7 July 2025 at 119,477 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, though the same date also shows a failed attempt with no defects logged, an administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Prior tests in July 2024 at 116,655 miles, August 2023 at 107,916 miles, and August 2022 at 94,449 miles all passed cleanly with no advisories, indicating the vehicle has avoided recurring workshop attention across its later life. Mileage has accumulated at a typical rate for a 13-year-old car, averaging roughly 9,191 miles per year against the 119,477 miles recorded. The gap between the August 2022 test at 94,449 miles and August 2023 at 107,916 miles shows about 13,467 miles covered, then 8,739 miles to July 2024 and only 2,822 miles to July 2025, a clear slowdown in use over the final year. The DVSA data is sparse and clean, with no flagged corrosion, suspension wear, brake defects, or exhaust issues across the five-year window. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the car's age and the absence of any advisory history that might otherwise reveal gradual deterioration. Suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs warrant physical measurement despite the clean MOT trail. The lack of recorded faults suggests previous owners kept basic consumable upkeep current, but a 2013 vehicle with 119,477 miles can hide worn dampers or tired bushes that a visual test overlooks. Verify the 7 July 2025 fail-with-no-defects entry with DVSA to rule out a clerical error before purchase. Otherwise the record implies disciplined, low-stress ownership with no worsening mechanical trend to date.
