2008 Audi R8 4.2L Petrol · BU56 LES

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status as evidenced by five consecutive annual MOT passes without defects. The most recent test conducted on 6 October 2025 resulted in a pass with no recorded failures, maintaining the trend of clean results seen since the records began in September 2021. This consistency suggests that the primary safety and environmental components tested have met the minimum legal standards during each inspection interval. The recorded mileage of 62,030 miles over an 18-year period represents an average annual usage of approximately 3,446 miles. This low mileage is significantly lower than the national average for a vehicle of this age, indicating either infrequent use or extended periods of storage. While low mileage typically implies less wear on the engine and drivetrain, it can also lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and fluid oxidation which are not captured in an MOT test. Because the MOT history shows no failures or advisories, a buyer must perform a physical inspection focused on components prone to age-related degradation rather than mileage. Particular attention should be paid to the suspension bushes and control arm bushings for cracking or tearing, which often occurs on vehicles that sit. The brake discs should be checked for corrosion or pitting due to inactivity, and the tyres must be inspected for flat spots or sidew rot despite potentially having tread depth. Buying score: 72 Risk level: Low.
