Mechanical Assessment

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

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, though the lack of recent testing is a significant concern. The last recorded test on 11 November 2021 at 143,375 miles resulted in a pass following an initial failure for a nearside headlamp aim that was too high. Since that entry, there is no recorded MOT for nearly five years, making it impossible to verify the current mechanical condition or structural integrity of the chassis components. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,500 miles per year. The data shows a notable gap in usage between the April 2019 test at 141,253 miles and the November 2021 test at 143,375 miles, covering only 2,122 miles over two years. This low annual mileage suggests the car may have sat stationary for extended periods, which often leads to perished rubber components and fluid-related issues that the record alone cannot capture. A buyer must prioritise a physical inspection of the braking system and suspension. The October 2016 test at 128,599 miles flagged deterioration in both rear brake hoses and uneven tyre wear on the offside rear. While these appear to have been addressed subsequently, the age of the vehicle increases the likelihood of new hoses cracking or suspension bushes failing again. Given the five-year lapse in official testing, a thorough check for structural corrosion on the subframes and exhaust mounting is essential, as these are common failure points for this generation of Audi A4 when left un.
