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

This 2002 Audi has 14 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 48,652 miles. The high mileage for its age, combined with a 24-year-old vehicle, presents significant long-term risks.

The vehicle shows high annual usage, averaging 12,864 miles/year, with a notable spike of 24,866 miles in just 12 months between April 2012 and April 2013.

Things to check

  • Recurring tyre failures (3 tests) and brake disc weakness (2 tests) indicate systemic neglect of critical safety components.
  • High annual mileage (12,864 mi/yr) for a 24-year-old car suggests heavy use and accelerated wear.
  • The 2002 registration means this vehicle is not ULEZ-compliant, incurring a daily charge in London.
  • Five failures across 14 tests, including major brake and tyre defects, points to a reactive maintenance approach.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or round numbers, indicating genuine odometer readings.
  • All major failures were immediately rectified, demonstrating the owner's ability to address critical issues.
  • The vehicle has a valid MOT certificate, albeit expiring in 2014, which is a positive for its time.
  • No recurring failures in the same system category since 2013, suggesting the owner has been proactive in recent years.
