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 remains in a roadworthy condition with a highly stable maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent test conducted in March 2026 at 74,913 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failure just four miles prior. This initial failure likely represented a minor administrative error or a trivial sensor-related issue that was rectified immediately, as the subsequent clean sheet indicates a proactive approach to maintaining safety-critical standards. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,300 miles per annum. Between April 2023 at 48,160 miles and March 2026 at 74,913 miles, the car covered over 26,000 miles, showing steady and predictable usage. The annual gap of 8,000 miles between the 2024 and 2025 tests suggests regular operation which helps prevent the degradation of rubber components and seals associated with long periods of inactivity. Since the MOT history shows no recurring advisories for structural corrosion or mechanical wear components, a physical inspection should focus on standard consumable items for an Audi of this age. A buyer should verify the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these are the first items to fail on this platform despite low mileage. Given the lack of recorded brake issues or thinning discs in the history, checking for uneven pad wear or sticking calipers will ensure the previous owner maintained the braking system as diligently as the digital record suggests.
