This 2012 Audi has 13 MOT tests on record with a 100% pass rate and 35,467 miles. While there are recurring advisories for brakes and tyres, these are typical wear items for a 14-year-old vehicle.

Things to check
- The 2012 registration means it is not ULEZ-compliant, incurring a daily charge in London.
- The 1.6L diesel engine is known for timing chain issues; verify service history for this model.
Working in its favour
- Perfect MOT record with 8 consecutive passes and no failures since registration.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (7,353 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
- Recent MOT pass (Apr 2026) with a long expiry date until April 2027.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2025) indicates high safety standards.
