AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2008 Audi has 20 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 60,926 miles. The vehicle's age and recurring issues make it a high-risk purchase.
A critical mileage anomaly exists: the vehicle recorded 732,351 miles on 2013-03-21, then only 97,905 miles on 2014-04-24, indicating possible odometer tampering.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Mar 2013 (732,351 mi) and Apr 2014 (97,905 mi) — possible odometer tamperi
- Mileage decreased from 732,351 miles (2013-03-21) to 97,905 miles (2014-04-24) — strong odometer fraud indicator.
- Recurring major failures in critical safety systems: suspension (2018, 2023), brakes (2020, 2022), and lights (2023, 2026).
- Four major light failures (2018, 2023, 2026) and two major brake failures (2020, 2022) — consistent neglect of safety.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-02-03, indicating current roadworthiness despite history.
- Consistent annual mileage averaging 9,922 miles/year, aligning with typical UK usage.
- No evidence of outstanding finance (HPI check needed) or write-off status from provided data.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2025) — excellent safety credentials for a 2008 model.
