2004 Audi A4 1.9L Diesel · LR54 WBD

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent inspection data. The latest MOT test conducted in April 2024 at 228,856 miles passed with no recorded defects, indicating that the car met all minimum safety standards at that time. This followed a clean pass in February 2023, which rectified a failure recorded just one month prior. This suggests the owner was proactive in addressing identified issues, as the vehicle has maintained a clean record over the last two testing cycles. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical annual usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 10,400 miles per year. Between October 2021 and February 2023, the car covered 6,725 miles, representing a steady rate of use. The subsequent 5,321 miles recorded between February 2023 and April 2024 show a slight decrease in monthly frequency but remain regular. This consistent usage suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stationary storage, which often leads to the degradation of rubber components and internal corrosion in brake systems. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on high-wear areas common to high-mileage Audi models of this era. While the MOT history is currently clean, the 228,000-mile mark necessitates close scrutiny of the suspension bushes, control arms, and shock absorbers for signs of play or perished rubber. Check the structural integrity of the subframes and rear mounting points, as these areas are prone to significant corrosion over two decades. Given the previous failure in early 2023, verify that the brake discs and calipers are free from signs of excessive thinning or uneven wear.
