AI verdict AVOID 30/100
AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2008 Audi has 20 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 28,517 miles. While it has a valid MOT until 2026, the underlying issues and lack of transparency make this a high-risk purchase.
The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage before Oct 2022 (429 mi/yr equivalent), followed by normal usage, indicating a potential odometer fraud or a significant period of inactivity.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS defect: Tyres failed in May 2019 and Oct 2024, indicating critical safety neglect.
- Recurring Suspension Failures: Major failures in May 2019 and Oct 2024, with persistent advisories, point to chronic structural wear.
- Mileage Anomaly: Suspiciously low mileage (429 mi/yr) before Oct 2022 suggests potential odometer fraud.
- Engine Oil Recurring Advisory: Noted in 3 separate tests (Oct 2023, Oct 2024, Oct 2025), indicating a persistent and unresolved issue.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2025): 5-star safety rating.
- Valid MOT until October 2026, providing immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- Consistent annual mileage post-2022, averaging 9,447 miles/year, aligns with typical UK usage.
- No recent MOT failures or dangerous defects since the Oct 2025 pass, suggesting current roadworthiness.
