AI verdict AVOID 37/100

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

This 2007 Audi has 23 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 35,850 miles. The mileage trajectory is consistent, but the vehicle's age and recurring issues present significant risks.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, showing normal usage of 7,736 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but the car is 19 years old.

Things to check

  • Feb 2019: Major failure for brakes, followed by advisories for the same system in subsequent tests.
  • Feb 2019: Major failure for an offside front coil spring, with no subsequent advisory for this critical safety component.
  • Aug 2024: Major failure for excessive diesel smoke from the exhaust, a known Audi weakness.
  • Aug 2024: Major failure for an offside rear position lamp, indicating electrical issues.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2025): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 7 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until 2026-09-08, providing immediate peace of mind.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory over 19 years, no signs of odometer fraud.
