2004 Audi A4 3.0L Petrol · DS04 KFV

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status following a clean MOT pass on May 29, 2025 at 101,220 miles. This reflects an improving trend in maintenance discipline, as the car successfully moved past previous failures in 2023 and 2024. The transition from failed tests to a defect-free most recent inspection indicates that the current owner is proactively addressing identified mechanical issues and ensuring the vehicle meets minimum safety standards without outstanding recorded advisories. At 22 years old, the recorded mileage of 101,220 miles is significantly low, averaging approximately 4,600 miles per year. The data shows consistent low-intensity usage, with only 6,018 miles driven between May 2023 and May 2024, and another 4,567 miles covered in the final year. While this low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, the long periods of standing often lead to age-related degradation of rubberized components, perished seals, and fluid contamination which can occur regardless of distance traveled. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and subframes, as older Audi models from this era are prone to corrosion in hidden mounting points. Given the history of MOT failures in 2023 and 2024, a close check of the suspension bushes, control arms, and coil springs is necessary to ensure no play remains. Additionally, verify the brake system for seizing or seized calipers, as low-mileage vehicles frequently suffer from brake rust during long periods of inactivity.
