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 record indicates a pattern of immediate reactive maintenance. The most recent test conducted on 24 November 2021 at 192,491 miles passed with no recorded defects, following a failure just five days prior on the same mileage reading. This suggests the previous owner was proactive in addressing immediate test failures to ensure compliance, yet the lack of advisory entries provides no insight into developing wear or structural deterioration during that final recorded period. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 10,100 miles per year. Between May 2019 and November 2021, the car covered 22,683 miles, representing a steady usage pattern of roughly 9,200 miles annually. However, there is a significant gap in the data as the last recorded MOT was performed four and a half years ago relative to the current June 2026 date. This lapse means the current state of the braking system, suspension components, and emissions levels is unknown and has not been verified by a DVSA tester for an extended period. A buyer must focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity and suspension components, as the high mileage of 192,491 miles places significant stress on rubber bushings and coil springs. Given the age of the Audi, corrosion on the sills and subframe points is a priority check. Because the recorded MOT history lacks recent advisories, the inspector should specifically look for binding calipers, perished brake fluid, and exhaust leaks, as the lack of recent testing increases the likelihood that undetected mechanical faults have developed since the November 2021 certification.
