Our Verdict

A cautious recommendation. The exception

Prioritise a review of the service history to confirm that the brake system was fully overhauled following the 2023 failure, rather than just receiving a minimal fix to pass the test. You should also verify if the offside rear coil spring—which was flagged as corroded in 2023, 2024, and 2025—has finally been replaced, as it remained an advisory for three consecutive years.

Given the low annual mileage, there is a risk of carbon build-up in the diesel particulate filter (DPF) if the car has been used primarily for short urban trips. Ask for evidence of longer motorway runs or professional DPF cleaning in the vehicle's history.

The 1968cc diesel engine is designed for efficiency, particularly on longer journeys, though tax will be based on the 2010 emissions bracket. Insurance for the A4 typically falls into a mid-range group, reflecting its executive status.

Maintenance costs for this model can be higher than budget brands, especially regarding suspension components and braking systems, as evidenced by the failures in this vehicle's history. Typical annual expenditure including fuel, tax, and servicing is estimated to be moderate.

Carefully inspect the rear suspension, specifically the coil springs, for signs of heavy corrosion or recent replacement, as this was a persistent issue in the MOT history from 2023 to 2025. Test the brakes for any signs of binding or uneven pulling, referencing the 2023 failure where the service brake was excessively binding and efficiency was below requirements.

Check the tread depth and wear patterns across all four tyres. In October 2023, three tyres were recorded as worn close to the legal limit or worn on the edges, which could indicate a need for wheel alignment or a history of neglecting tyre replacement.

This 2010 grey Audi A4 diesel has recorded 79,668 miles, which is well below the model average. While the most recent MOT in August 2026 was passed without defects, previous records show a recurring issue with corroded rear coil springs and a significant failure in 2023 involving brake efficiency and binding.

The A4 has an average MOT pass rate of 80.8%, with common failure points including tyres and coil springs, both of which are present in this vehicle's history.
