2021 Audi A4 S LN BLK ED 35 Tfsi Mhev SA 2.0L Petrol · LS16 ACE

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-01-26 recorded a pass at 63,313 miles, but an identical date also shows a fail with no defects noted. This inconsistency raises questions about the accuracy of the records, though the absence of recorded defects in the pass suggests no critical issues at that mileage. The prior test in 2025-02-26 at 55,007 miles and 2024-01-18 at 40,119 miles both passed without defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. However, the 2024-01-17 fail at 40,117 miles—just one mile lower—suggests potential testing variability or minor unresolved concerns. The vehicle accumulates 12,663 miles annually, exceeding typical usage for its age, which accelerates wear on components like tyres, brakes, and suspension. The 2024-01-18 test at 40,119 miles and the subsequent 2025-02-26 test at 55,007 miles show a 14,890-mile gap, potentially allowing undetected issues to develop. The 2026-01-26 pass at 63,313 miles aligns with the high annual average, but the lack of defects in the record does not confirm proactive maintenance. A buyer should inspect the suspension for worn bushes or coil springs, given the high mileage, and check for brake disc warping or caliper binding, which can arise from excessive use. The absence of corrosion or structural issues in the MOT history is positive, but the 2024 fail without defects warrants scrutiny. A pre-purchase inspection should focus on the drivetrain, exhaust system, and wheel bearings to verify the vehicle’s mechanical integrity beyond the recorded data.
