AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

This vehicle presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 10 January 2026 at 165,381 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent five-year trend of first-time passes without a single recorded advisory, suggesting a high standard of preventative maintenance. The mileage accumulation is steady and typical for an eighteen-year-old vehicle. Between January 2022 and January 2026, the odometer rose from 132,555 to 165,381 miles. The annual distance covered has remained relatively consistent, averaging roughly 8,000 to 9,000 miles per year. There are no erratic jumps or long periods of inactivity that would suggest hidden deterioration or neglect. While the DVSA record is remarkably clean, the age and total mileage of 165,381 miles necessitate a physical check of high-wear components. A buyer should specifically inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for fatigue, as these often perish on older Audi A4s without necessarily triggering an immediate MOT failure. Checking for underbody corrosion and ensuring the timing belt and water pump have been replaced according to the manufacturer's interval is essential, as these service items do not appear on MOT certificates. The absence of any flagged issues regarding brake discs, binding calipers, or exhaust emissions over the last five years indicates a well-kept drivetrain. The lack of tyre tread or wiper blade advisories further suggests the previous owner did not ignore basic consumables. Focus the physical inspection on the service history book to verify mechanical maintenance that falls outside the scope of the MOT test.
