2004 Audi A4 4.2L Petrol · DA03 BOY

The 2004 Audi A4 presents a currently roadworthy status following a passed MOT on 23 July 2025 at 129,346 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable across the available history, with four passes and a single failure that carried no listed defects. The brief failure on 23 June 2025 at 129,337 miles suggests an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a worn component, given the clean pass one month later. Annual mileage sits low for a 22-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,879 miles per year against the recorded 129,346 miles. The records show gentle accumulation: 123,901 miles in May 2022, 125,365 in May 2023, 128,376 in June 2024, and 129,337 by June 2025. Such low use over long intervals often means prolonged standing periods, which can allow corrosion and perished rubber to develop unseen. The clean test sheet offers no advisories, but sparse entries leave mechanical condition lightly documented. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and subframe corrosion, as the MOT history gives no visibility of these wear items. Brake discs and calipers warrant checking for binding or uneven wear from infrequent use. Exhaust emissions and structural integrity should be verified beyond the test bay, since low-mileage older Audis can hide rust in sills and arches not captured in a pass result.
