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

This 2006 Audi has 21 MOT tests on record with a 76% pass rate and 37,544 miles. The vehicle's MOT status is also currently 'Not valid' with an expiry date of 2025-05-17, which is highly irregular.

The mileage trajectory shows a significant drop from 104,283 miles in Jan 2019 to 118,836 miles by Jan 2020, followed by a sharp decrease to 37,544 miles by Sep 2019, indicating a major odometer fraud.

Things to check

  • MOT HISTORY: 4 major suspension failures (Jan 2022, Jan 2023, Jan 2023) and 9 recurring brake advisories (Jan 2021, Jan 2022) point to severe neglect.
  • MILEAGE FRAUD: A 20-year-old vehicle shows a drastic mileage drop from 104,283 miles (Jan 2019) to 37,544 miles (Sep 2019), a clear red flag for odometer tampering.
  • MOT STATUS: The vehicle currently has a 'Not valid' MOT status with an expiry date of 2025-05-17, which is highly irregular and suggests a significant underlying issue.
  • RECURRING ISSUES: Tyres, emissions, and steering advisories are recurring across multiple tests, indicating a pattern of deferred maintenance.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2025): 5-star safety rating.
  • MILEAGE: Consistent annual usage averaging 8,620 miles/year, which is normal for a UK vehicle.
  • MOT HISTORY: The vehicle has a consistent MOT history since 2009, with no long gaps or missing records.
  • RECENT PASS: The vehicle passed its most recent MOT in May 2024, indicating it was roadworthy at that time.
