2008 Audi R8 4.2L Petrol · BO55 SSH

The vehicle presents a consistent and stable maintenance profile according to the official MOT history. The most recent test on 22 January 2025 at 48,320 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a series of successful inspections dating back to 2021, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that avoids common structural or mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation is notably low for an 18-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,684 miles per year. The data shows a steady, albeit slow, progression from 45,196 miles in November 2021 to 48,320 miles in early 2025. This pattern indicates the car has likely seen light, occasional use rather than heavy commuting. While low mileage generally implies less wear on the drivetrain and suspension, such long periods of inactivity can sometimes lead to dried-out rubber seals or seized components. Since the MOT record shows no recurring issues with brake discs, suspension bushes, or exhaust emissions, the vehicle appears to be in a good state of compliance. However, because the mileage is so low, a physical inspection should focus on age-related degradation rather than wear-related damage. You should specifically check for perished rubber components in the suspension and engine bay, as well as any signs of corrosion on the underbody or structural elements that may not be visible during a standard MOT test. The absence of advisories regarding tyre tread or wiper blades in the recent history suggests basic upkeep has been managed. Given the low usage, ensure the service history confirms that oil and fluids have been changed according to time intervals rather than just mileage, to prevent internal engine sludge. The current records indicate a well-kept vehicle with no immediate regulatory concerns.
