2008 Audi A4 1.8L Petrol · S23 KDJ

The 2008 Audi A4 presents a currently roadworthy status, with the most recent DVSA test on 6 May 2025 at 100,653 miles returning a pass and no defects recorded. Maintenance trend across the available history shows stable condition, with no advisories or mechanical faults across successive annual examinations. The vehicle cleared its test on 10 May 2024 at 82,054 miles and the 4 May 2023 test at 70,134 miles, both with clean sheets. Two anomalous failures appear on the same dates as passes with zero defects logged, indicating administrative re-tests rather than latent mechanical concerns. Mileage accumulation sits low for an eighteen-year-old vehicle, totalling 100,653 miles or roughly 5,592 miles per year. DVSA records show a steady climb from 70,134 miles in May 2023 to 82,054 miles by May 2024 and 100,653 miles by May 2025. That equates to about 12,000 miles in the final year and modest earlier use, with no abrupt gaps suggesting long-term standing. Sparse test data limits deep trend analysis, yet the clean outcomes imply consistent annual presentation for testing. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of age-sensitive components despite the absent advisories. The tester logged no corrosion, suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or exhaust emissions issues, but an Audi of this vintage warrants hands-on checks of subframe integrity and underbody rust protection. Low annual use can mask perished rubber mounts or binding calipers that a short test drive might not expose. Previous keepers appear to have maintained basic statutory compliance, given the passes and immediate re-tests. The lack of recorded tyre, wiper, or consumable flags suggests either meticulous upkeep or cursory test routing. Verify service history independently and scrutinise the redundant failure entries with DVSA to confirm no omitted defect data.
