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's MOT history shows an inconsistent pattern of compliance, moving from a failure on 18 December 2025 to a pass on 19 December 2025. This immediate succession of tests suggests a failure occurred during a retest attempt, though the specific mechanical cause for the failure remains unrecorded in the provided data. While the most recent result is a pass with no defects, the presence of two failures within a single year, specifically in February 2024 and December 2025, indicates a lack of consistent regulatory compliance. The recorded mileage of 115,968 miles is consistent with the vehicle's 2013 age, averaging approximately 8,921 miles per year. The data shows a gap between the October 2022 test and the February 2024 failure, followed by a more frequent testing frequency in 2024 and 2025. No specific mileage was provided for the individual test dates to track precise annual accumulation, but the total distance aligns with typical long-term usage for this model. Because the MOT records do not specify the exact nature of the failures in February 2024 or December 2025, a physical inspection is necessary to identify potential recurring issues. A buyer should focus on checking the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake components, as these are common areas for failure in vehicles of this age. The lack of recorded advisories in the recent tests does not preclude the need to inspect for structural corrosion or exhaust system degradation, which are typical wear items for a 13-year-old Audi. Buying Score: 55 Risk Level: Medium.
