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

This 2016 Audi has 10 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 19,037 miles. However, a pattern of recurring brake and tyre advisories, combined with recent suspension failures, warrants careful consideration.

The vehicle shows consistent, normal usage with 19,037 miles over 10 years, averaging 6,208 miles per year, which is below the UK average of 8,000.

Things to check

  • Jun 2021: Recurring advisories for worn rear brake discs and pads indicate ongoing brake maintenance needs.
  • Jun 2022: Recurring advisories for worn rear tyres suggest a history of poor tyre condition.
  • Jun 2024 & Mar 2025: Recent failures for suspension components (front arm bushes) after years of advisories.
  • Mar 2025: Recent failure for headlamp aim too low, a common but easily fixed issue.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2025): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until March 2027, offering peace of mind for several years.
  • Consistent, normal mileage for its age, suggesting light and regular use.
