2018 Audi A4 1.4L Petrol · YM18 CSX

The vehicle's current roadworthiness status appears stable following a successful MOT on 18 February 2026 at 85,738 miles. The inspection history shows a recurring pattern of failure followed immediately by a pass, specifically during the tests on 17 February 2026 and 05 March 2024. While these failures did not result in recorded defects, they suggest the vehicle may occasionally fall just short of the required standard for emissions or minor consumable items before being rectified. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,717 miles per year. The data shows a steady progression from 58,215 miles in March 2024 to 72,011 miles in February 2025, and finally reaching 85,738 miles in February 2026. This incremental growth indicates regular road use rather than long periods of stationary storage, which helps mitigate the risk of seized calipers or perished rubber components often found on low-use vehicles. Because the recorded failures did not specify the exact cause of the non-compliance, a physical inspection is necessary to identify any underlying trends. You should specifically examine the brake discs and pads for uneven wear, as well as the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of fatigue. Given the mileage, checking the condition of the underside for corrosion and inspecting the exhaust system for leaks or excessive wear is also prudent to ensure no structural or emission issues are developing between annual tests.
