This 2012 Audi has 15 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 51,099 miles. The recent MOT failure in Sep 2025, despite a subsequent pass, warrants careful inspection.
The vehicle has recorded 201,677 miles by Sep 2025, significantly above the UK average of 8,000 miles per year, indicating high usage and potential accelerated wear.
