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 20 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 26,043 miles. The extremely low mileage for its age, combined with a recent MOT failure, warrants careful consideration.

The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage before Jul 2018 (160 mi/yr equivalent), followed by normal usage averaging 6,434 miles/year, which is a significant anomaly for a 17-year-old car.

Things to check

  • The 1.9L TDI engine is notorious for timing chain and turbocharger failures, which are expensive to repair.
  • The recurring suspension and tyre advisories, escalating to failures, indicate a history of reactive maintenance.
  • The extremely low initial mileage (160 mi/yr equivalent) for a 2009 vehicle is highly unusual and warrants investigation.
  • The recent MOT failure (Jan 2026) after a long gap in testing suggests potential neglect or a recent major repair.

Working in its favour

  • The vehicle has a valid MOT until January 2027, providing immediate peace of mind.
  • All past failures and advisories were immediately rectified and passed subsequent tests, demonstrating responsive ownership.
  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 6,434 miles/year since 2018, indicating regular use.
  • No mileage anomalies detected since the initial low-usage period, suggesting a stable usage pattern.
