2016 Audi A4 2.0L Diesel · GC16 PVX

The most recent MOT on 12 September 2025 recorded a PASS at 93,442 miles, indicating the vehicle presently meets the statutory roadworthiness requirements. Over the past three years the test outcomes have been uniformly positive, aside from a single failure recorded on 30 August 2023 that was subsequently cleared the same day; this suggests any defect identified was remedied promptly and does not point to a deteriorating trend. Mileage has risen from 73,687 miles in September 2022 to 93,442 miles in September 2025, an average of roughly 6,500 miles per annum. The increments between tests – 5,676 miles in the first year, 8,292 miles in the second, and 5,787 miles in the third – are consistent with normal usage for a vehicle of this age and show no abrupt spikes that would imply excessive short‑term loading. The record contains no gaps; each annual test aligns closely with the expected 12‑month interval, reinforcing the impression of regular servicing. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of consumables that are not captured by MOT defects. Inspect tyre tread depth and uniformity, as mileage of this magnitude typically incurs noticeable wear. Examine brake pads and discs for thinning or scoring, especially given the vehicle’s age and the previous failure, to ensure the braking system remains effective. Check suspension components – coil springs, shock absorbers, and bushings – for any signs of leakage, corrosion, or looseness, as these parts are prone to fatigue after a decade of service. Finally, confirm that the 2023 failure was addressed by requesting the repair invoice or a re‑test certificate. A visual inspection for rust on structural panels, wheel arches, and under‑body areas will further reassure that the car’s integrity has been maintained. With these checks completed, the Audi A4 presents as a mechanically sound purchase based on its MOT history.
