2004 Audi A4 1.8L Petrol · YK04 AFR

The Audi A4 demonstrates a stable and highly encouraging roadworthiness trend based on the most recent MOT inspection conducted on 23 August 2023 at 102,843 miles, which resulted in a clean pass with zero defects recorded. This fault-free test mirrors the outcomes of the preceding two years, indicating that the vehicle has received consistent mechanical attention and suffers from no chronic, recurring faults. Because the last test occurred nearly three years prior to the current date in August 2026, the vehicle has likely been SORN or stored off-road for an extended period, meaning a fresh MOT test and a thorough mechanical recommissioning are mandatory prior to any highway use. The recorded mileage of 102,843 miles across its twenty-two years on the road equates to an exceptionally low annual average of roughly 4,675 miles. The trajectory shows steady, modest use, with the car covering 3,172 miles between August 2021 and August 2022, followed by another 4,385 miles leading up to the August 2023 test. This sparse dataset lacks advisories entirely, pointing to an absence of monitored wear items, yet low-mileage examples of this vintage frequently mask age-related degradation on non-moving parts that escape standard MOT scrutiny. Prospective buyers must conduct a rigorous physical inspection focusing on rubber components, suspension bushes, and hydraulic lines, which are prone to perishing and cracking during extended periods of inactivity or low-mileage storage. Brake discs and calipers require close scrutiny for surface corrosion and binding due to lack of regular actuation during the prolonged gap since the last test. Furthermore, checking the structural integrity of the subframes and floor pan for corrosion is essential, alongside verifying the condition of the cambelt and auxiliary belts, which age by calendar years rather than mileage alone.
