2003 Audi A4 2.5L Diesel · BD03 WNP

The vehicle's overall roadworthiness status is currently failing, as the most recent MOT test in June 2026 was conducted on January 24, 2025, at 173,773 miles. This date falls approximately 17 months ago, placing the test within the normal range for a used car of this age, but the history reveals a significant deterioration trend. The vehicle has failed twice on MOTs, with the second failure occurring in November 2023, indicating a clear pattern of progressive deterioration that has not been corrected. The mileage pattern demonstrates rapid accumulation without adequate maintenance, which suggests the owner may have been neglecting routine checks. The vehicle reached 173,031 miles on December 8, 2023, after only two years of ownership. This gap between the last MOT and the current date, combined with the 173,773 miles in the June 2026 test, indicates that the vehicle has experienced severe wear on critical components. The most recent test in June 2026 was conducted at 173,773 miles, which is significantly lower than the 173,031 miles recorded in late 2023, highlighting a substantial loss of operational value. A buyer must inspect the vehicle for structural integrity and mechanical risks, specifically focusing on the suspension and braking systems. The MOT records show extensive corrosion on coil springs, front and rear wings, and brake discs, which are indicative of severe rust and potential failure. The rear service brakes are flagged as excessively binding in the 2023 test, a condition that has not been corrected since, suggesting a failure to maintain these components. Additionally, the oil leak and suspension arm bush wear in the 2023 test indicate that the vehicle's internal structure is compromised, requiring immediate professional assessment to prevent further damage.
