2005 Audi A4 2.0L Diesel · GP55 XAS

The vehicle currently shows a failed MOT dated 13 June 2024 at 212,526 miles with no defects recorded, leaving roadworthy status unconfirmed; the maintenance trend from earlier tests is stable but marked by anomalous administrative outcomes. In the June 2023 tests the car first failed on 6 June at 203,761 miles then passed the next day with no defects logged, indicating a re-test rather than a repaired fault. Prior passes on 26 May 2021 at 179,378 miles, 6 June 2022 at 190,272 miles and the 2023 pass show no recorded advisories. Odometer readings advance from 179,378 miles in May 2021 to 190,272 by June 2022, then to 203,761 in June 2023 and 212,526 in June 2024. This tracks to roughly 10,100 miles per year, aligned with typical usage for a 2005 Audi A4. No rapid accumulation or standing gaps emerge across the timeline. The MOT data remains sparse and clean, with zero defects or advisories across all entries, which limits mechanical transparency but suggests the vehicle was presented without flagged wear. A buyer must still commission an in-person inspection of age-sensitive components despite the absent MOT faults. The tester recorded no advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs or structural corrosion, yet at 212,526 miles these items face inevitable fatigue. Examine subframe rust, wishbone bush deformation and caliper binding on a ramp. The back-to-back failure and pass in 2023 plus the 2024 failure with no defects imply previous owners may have encountered paperwork or presentation issues rather than neglected consumables like tyres or wiper blades. Verify service history and probe for undocumented exhaust or chassis issues before purchase.
