2007 Audi A8 5.2L Petrol · OW07 CCX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a reactive rather than proactive ownership pattern. While it passed its most recent test in November 2025 at 116,042 miles, it failed that same day due to both rear tyres being below the legal 1.6mm tread limit. This indicates that the owner only addresses critical consumable failures when forced by the MOT tester rather than replacing them as they wear down. At 116,042 miles, this 19-year-old Audi A8 has averaged approximately 6,100 miles per year, which is consistent with low-use patterns for a luxury saloon. The data shows steady usage intervals, with roughly 4,300 miles covered between February 2024 and November 2025, and another 1,350 miles between February 2023 and February 2024. The low annual mileage suggests the vehicle has not endured excessive mechanical stress, but the age of the car increases the likelihood of rubber components degrading regardless of the distance driven. A buyer must inspect the suspension geometry and alignment, as the recurring advisories for tyres worn close to the limit or worn on edges across 2023 and 2024 suggest potential alignment issues or worn suspension bushes. The mention of under trays in 2023 and 2025 is standard for this model to protect the chassis, but they can also mask early signs of structural corrosion. Given the age of the vehicle, a thorough physical check for rust on the subframe and brake lines is essential, as the MOT record does not provide detail on structural integrity beyond basic compliance.
