2020 Audi A4 2.0L Petrol · EX 7012

This 2020 Audi A4 has maintained a consistently clean MOT history across three consecutive tests, all passing without any recorded defects or advisories. The most recent inspection on 2025-10-16 confirms the vehicle remains roadworthy under current DVSA standards, with no evidence of recurring mechanical failures or structural concerns. The absence of advisories suggests previous owners addressed any minor issues privately before testing, though this does not preclude hidden wear in areas not routinely checked by MOT testers—such as suspension bushes or drivetrain components. The recorded mileage of 32,700 miles at the time of writing indicates unusually low annual usage, averaging just 5,450 miles over five years. This pattern suggests the vehicle has spent extended periods either stored or driven infrequently, which can accelerate deterioration in fluids, tyre condition, and rubber components like seals and hoses. The gap between tests—approximately 12 months each—aligns with the legal MOT interval, but the low mileage raises questions about whether critical services (e.g., brake fluid changes, timing belt inspection) were performed on schedule rather than strictly tied to mileage. Given the lack of MOT-recorded faults, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of suspension components—particularly coil springs, bushes, and dampers—for signs of dry rot or excessive play. The brakes, while not flagged, warrant scrutiny for uneven wear or binding calipers, especially if the vehicle has been stationary for prolonged periods. Tyre tread depth, despite passing MOT thresholds, should be verified for uneven wear or embedded debris, as low mileage can mask subtle alignment or suspension issues. Finally, check for corrosion around wheel arches, sills, and underbody, as rust can develop rapidly in parked vehicles, compromising structural integrity. The clean MOT record is reassuring, but the low mileage demands vigilance for deferred maintenance risks.
