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

This 2012 Audi has 14 MOT tests on record with a 79% pass rate and 31,239 miles. While these were addressed, the repeated advisories and one major failure suggest a need for careful inspection.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 7,524 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, and a recent normal annual usage of 6,733 miles.

Things to check

  • Recurring brake advisories (Mar 2022) escalated to dangerous failure (Feb 2023).
  • Recurring tyre advisories (Mar 2022) escalated to dangerous failure (Feb 2023).
  • Major exhaust leak failure (Feb 2019) and fractured coil spring (Feb 2019) indicate past neglect.
  • Consistent pattern of wear items (tyres, brakes) needing attention over its lifespan.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until March 2027, offering peace of mind for the next 3 years.
  • Consistent, normal annual mileage (7,524 miles/year) for its 14-year lifespan.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies in the MOT record.
