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 59,328 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the pattern of maintenance issues warrants careful consideration.

The vehicle shows high annual usage, averaging 13,320 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or inconsistencies in the 10 MOT tests.

Things to check

  • Oct 2025 MOT: Advisory for brake pad wear and anti-roll bar link indicates upcoming maintenance.
  • Oct 2025 MOT: Recurring advisories for registration plate lamp, washer, and brake pads suggest owner neglect.
  • Oct 2025 MOT: High mileage (183,975 miles) for a 2012 vehicle will accelerate wear on components.
  • Oct 2025 MOT: Recent failure for anti-roll bar link and brake pads, though rectified, signals current issues.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until October 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • Consistent high mileage suggests regular use and no hidden storage periods.
  • No major structural failures or dangerous defects recorded in its history.
  • Euro NCAP rating of 5/5 stars (2025) confirms high safety standards for this model.
