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 22 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 42,950 miles. This fundamental data anomaly makes the vehicle's true history and condition unverifiable.

The vehicle's mileage is critically inconsistent: 96,009 miles in Aug 2018, but only 42,952 miles in Dec 2010, a 19-year reversal that makes the car's true history and condition unverifiable.

Things to check

  • Critical 19-year-old mileage discrepancy: 96,009 miles (Aug 2018) vs. 42,952 miles (Dec 2010).
  • First MOT test on 2010-12-19 failed for multiple severe defects, including headlamp aim and fouling.
  • Recurring advisories on critical safety and wear items: exhaust (2018, 2023, 2025), subframe (2023, 2025), ball joints (2023, 2025).
  • The 2010-12-19 MOT test's severe failures and the subsequent 19-year mileage reversal indicate a high-risk purchase.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2025): 5-star safety rating.
  • No recent MOT failures or advisories since the 2010-12-19 test.
  • The vehicle has a valid MOT until 2026-08-16, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • Consistent annual mileage of ~9,900 miles/year since 2018, suggesting regular use.
