2016 Audi A4 2.0L Diesel · J206 ASH

The Audi A4 presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 30 April 2025 at 133,948 miles, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history, as every annual test from May 2023 through April 2025 resulted in a pass once minor administrative re-tests cleared. No advisories or mechanical faults appear at any stage, indicating the vehicle cleared each examination on first or immediate second attempt without outstanding wear items. Mileage sits high for a 2016 plate at 133,948 recorded miles, averaging roughly 13,400 miles per year. The record shows 105,588 miles on 10 May 2023, rising to 121,439 by 13 May 2024 and 133,948 by 30 April 2025. That equates to about 16,000 miles in the first interval and 12,500 in the second, reflecting consistent high use rather than long standing periods. The two same-day fail then pass pairs in 2024 and 2025 at near-identical mileages suggest clerical or documentation issues at the testing station, not mechanical rejection, since no defects were listed. Given the clean MOT trail, the buyer should still commission an independent inspection of consumable and structural components that tests at this mileage may not flag. Priority areas include front suspension arms and bushes, brake disc thickness and caliper operation, and underbody corrosion around sills and subframes. The high annual mileage implies accelerated wear on dampers and tyres even where the tester recorded no advisory. A pre-purchase check should also confirm full service history to match the 13,000-plus miles per year. The absence of advisories across three years is reassuring but does not exempt the car from age-related degradation at 10 years old. Verify timing belt interval and transmission condition before commitment.
