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 presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on its history of clean passes over the last four years. The most recent test conducted in September 2022 at 148,482 miles resulted in no recorded defects or advisories, indicating that the car met all minimum safety standards at its last formal inspection. Since the failure in early 2019, the vehicle has consistently passed its tests without recurring mechanical issues or structural flags. The mileage pattern remains consistent with low-to-mid usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per annum. Between August 2021 and September 2022, the car covered 7,407 miles, showing a steady rate of use. However, there is a significant gap in data as the last recorded MOT was in September 2022. Given the current date of June 2026, the vehicle is nearly four years overdue for its annual test, meaning the current state of mechanical components and emissions has not been professionally verified for a considerable period. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and suspension components, as older Audi A4 models are prone to corrosion in the rear subframe and sills. While the MOT history is clean, the age of the vehicle suggests that rubber bushes, bushings, and hoses may have perished regardless of the relatively low mileage. Inspect the braking system for signs of binding calipers or heavily pitted discs, as the lack of recent testing since 2022 leaves the current condition of these safety items unconfirmed.
