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

The 2025‑08‑08 MOT at 103,366 miles passed with no defects recorded, confirming the Audi A7 is presently roadworthy; the maintenance trend has become stable and appears to be improving after the two 2024 suspension failures were corrected. Mileage has risen steadily from 27,373 miles in the 2016 test to 103,366 miles in 2025, averaging roughly 7,950 miles per year; the steepest jump occurred between the 2019 test at 60,077 miles and the 2020 test at 72,487 miles, after which the annual increase slowed to about 3,000 miles per year, with no gaps in the annual testing record. Recurring suspension faults are evident, with worn front and rear arm pins and bushes noted in 2018, 2021, 2022, 2023 and again in the 2024 failures at 100,253 miles, indicating that suspension components have been a persistent weak point and should be examined for excessive play or damage. A buyer should therefore inspect the condition of the suspension bushes and arm pins, verify that brake discs and pads are within acceptable wear limits, check for ongoing oil leakage, assess tyre tread and sidewall condition for cuts or perishing, and look for any structural rust that might affect the chassis or suspension mounting points.
