Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The Audi A4 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 30 July 2025 at 110,895 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, though the same date also shows a failure with no defects listed, indicating an administrative or retest anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Prior tests in July 2024, July 2023, and July 2022 all passed cleanly. The vehicle shows no recurring advisories across the five-year record. Annual mileage sits at a typical level for an 18-year-old car. The odometer read 98,652 miles in July 2022, rose to 105,903 by July 2023, then 108,816 in July 2024, and 110,895 in July 2025. That equates to roughly 6,161 miles per year, with the lowest annual gain of 2,079 miles recorded between July 2024 and July 2025. The sparse but consistent history shows no gaps or sudden accumulation that would suggest neglected storage or hard use. The clean MOT record gives no tester-flagged faults for suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or structural corrosion. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underside chassis members and subframe for rust, as the 2008 model faces age-related steel degradation not always caught in a pass. Check front control arm bushes and rear trailing arm mounts for play. Verify the brake caliper operation and disc condition despite no advisories, since binding calipers or thin discs escape detection on a clean test. Confirm the exhaust emissions and full drivetrain health through a road test, given the low annual use may have allowed moisture build-up in the system.
