2008 Audi R8 4.2L Petrol · XK55 XKD

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status following its most recent test on July 10, 2025, where it passed with no defects recorded. This follows two consecutive years of clean passes in 2024 and 2023. Although the record shows a failure on July 10, 2023, the issue was rectified immediately as the retest passed the following day, and no subsequent inspections have identified mechanical failures or advisories. At 104,122 miles, this 18-year-old vehicle has averaged approximately 5,785 miles per year, which is significantly lower than the national average for a car of this age. This low mileage suggests limited mechanical wear on drivetrain components, though it can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based parts. The MOT history shows consistent annual testing between 2022 and 2025, indicating a regular usage pattern rather than long periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components prone to age-related failure despite low mileage, specifically checking for perished suspension bushes, perished coil springs, and corrosion on the brake lines. While the recent records are clear of advisories, the gap between the 2023 failure and the subsequent passes warrants a close look at the underbody and the structural integrity of the chassis to ensure no hidden rust has developed that was not flagged by the tester. Buying score: 72 Risk level: Low.
