2007 Audi A4 2.0L Diesel · SB 181

The 2007 Audi A4 passed its most recent MOT on 28 August 2025 at 153,623 miles with no defects recorded, indicating the vehicle presented in a roadworthy condition at that time. The maintenance trend appears stable, with the latest test showing a clean sheet and no outstanding advisories carried forward from earlier examinations. Recorded mileage sits at 153,623 against an age of roughly nineteen years, equating to about 8,085 miles per annum, which is typical for a vehicle of this class and age. The history shows a six-year gap between the May 2018 and June 2019 tests, after which the car covered only 7,830 miles by the 2025 test. Such low annual use post-2019 suggests extended standing periods, which can accelerate corrosion and degrade rubber suspension bushes and brake caliper seals even without high mechanical load. The 2018 and 2019 records show failed tests on 1 May 2018 and 24 June 2019 at 142,495 and 145,793 miles respectively, each followed by a pass two days later with no defects logged. This pattern implies the failures were administrative or minor rectifications rather than structural or mechanical faults, though the DVSA entry gives no fault detail. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of brake discs, coil springs, and subframe corrosion given the vehicle's age and intermittent use. Prior to purchase, verify the absence of binding calipers, exhaust emissions within limits, and tyre sidewall condition after prolonged storage. The clean 2025 result offers reassurance, but nineteen-year-old Audis commonly develop worn suspension arms and rear silencer rust that a single test cannot fully disclose.
