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

This 2003 Audi has 11 MOT tests on record with a 82% pass rate and 45,305 miles. The recurring tyre advisories and a 2013 service gap are significant concerns for a car of this age.

The vehicle shows consistent low annual usage, averaging 8,530 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, and a 2013 service gap is noted.

Things to check

  • 2013 MOT gap suggests a period of off-road use or lack of maintenance.
  • Recurring tyre advisories (2006, 2009, 2010) indicate a pattern of wear.
  • Major electrical failure (2012) and multiple lighting failures (2012, 2015) suggest underlying electrical issues.
  • The vehicle is 23 years old, which means significant accumulated wear and potential age-related component failures.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2025): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (8,530 mi/yr) suggests light use and less engine/drivetrain stress.
  • No recurring major mechanical failures (e.g., brakes, suspension) are evident in the MOT history.
