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 15 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 48,200 miles. While it has a valid MOT now, the pattern of wear suggests substantial upcoming maintenance.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 9,290 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, showing normal usage over its 23-year lifespan.

Things to check

  • Recurring brake disc advisories (Dec 2012, Mar 2007) and a major failure (Dec 2012) indicate chronic wear.
  • Recurring tyre and headlamp advisories (Jun 2009, Mar 2007) and failures (Jun 2009) suggest a pattern of deferred maintenance.
  • A 3-year MOT gap (2015–2018) is a significant red flag for unverified roadworthiness and potential neglect.
  • The 2003 registration and 23-year age mean significant accumulated wear and potential for hidden issues.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2025): 5-star safety rating.
  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 9,290 miles/year, indicating normal usage.
  • No major structural failures or dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history.
  • The vehicle has a valid MOT certificate as of the last test in September 2017.
