AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2009 Audi has 16 MOT tests on record with a 88% pass rate and 33,988 miles. The extensive community-reported timing chain issues for Audi models are a major concern for this diesel engine.

The mileage trajectory is consistent with normal UK usage, averaging 9,062 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but a notable 3-year period of very low annual usage (Oct 2020 to Oct 2021) is worth investigating.

Things to check

  • Recurring tyre advisories (Oct 2019, Oct 2020) escalated to major failures (Oct 2020).
  • Recurring brake disc advisories (Oct 2018, Oct 2019) indicate ongoing wear.
  • Recurring suspension and shock absorber advisories (Oct 2019, Oct 2020) suggest structural neglect.
  • The 2019 tyre failure and subsequent advisories show a pattern of reactive maintenance.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2025): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until November 2026, offering peace of mind for immediate roadworthiness.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory averaging 9,062 miles per year, aligning with typical UK usage.
