MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

23 MOT tests are recorded for this 2000 Audi A4 (V974 FOW) between February 2006 and October 2021.

The record contains 16 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 23 October 2021 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 7 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (19 issues), Suspension (12 issues), Lighting (8 issues), Tyres (6 issues), Windscreen (5 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 38 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Offside Front Upper Suspension arm ball joint excessively worn fordward (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Nearside Front Outer Anti-roll bar linkage pin or bush excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Offside Front Outer Prop shaft joint constant velocity boot no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (6.1.7 (g) (ii))”.
