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 16 MOT tests on record with a 81% pass rate and 23,277 miles. While these were addressed, the sheer volume of advisories for wear items like tyres and brakes suggests a car that has been driven hard or maintained reactively.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 5,895 miles per year, which is below the UK average of 8,000 miles per year.
Things to check
- Recurring suspension failures (coil springs) in May 2019, Dec 2019, and Feb 2024.
- Recurring brake disc wear advisories in Dec 2020, Dec 2021, and Jan 2026.
- Recurring tyre wear advisories in May 2019, Dec 2020, and Jan 2026.
- Multiple advisories for anti-roll bar link, suspension arm, and steering rack in Jan 2026.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-02-12, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent low annual mileage (5,895 mi/yr) suggests light use.
- All past failures were immediately rectified and passed on retest.
- No major structural corrosion or dangerous defects found in MOT history.
