AI verdict AVOID 45/100

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 23 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 33,487 miles. While many issues were resolved, the sheer number of failures and advisories across various systems indicates a higher risk of future maintenance costs.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 10,035 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausibly low annual usage, showing normal usage for its age.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Nov 2024): Nearside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))
  • Recurring exhaust emissions failures/advisories across 5 tests (Dec 2019, Dec 2020, Dec 2021, Dec 2022, Dec 2023).
  • Recurring registration plate lamp failures/advisories across 5 tests (Aug 2012, Aug 2013, Sep 2013, Aug 2014, Aug 2015).
  • Recurring shock absorber advisories across 4 tests (Dec 2023, Nov 2024, Dec 2024, Dec 2025).

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-12-08, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory averaging 10,035 miles/year, showing no fraud.
  • No DANGEROUS defects remain unresolved from the last 3 years of MOT history.
  • Most recent MOT (Dec 2025) passed with no immediate failures or dangerous defects.
