This 2002 Audi has 29 MOT tests on record with a 69% pass rate. The vehicle's timing chain issues are a major concern for this model.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage averaging 4,234 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but this is below the UK average.
Things to check
- Two MOT failures in 2006 and 2007 for fuel system and brake components, though retested and passed.
- Recurring advisories for distorted road wheels in 2007 indicate ongoing suspension wear.
- The 2002 Audi model has a well-documented history of timing chain issues and excessive oil consumption, which are major concerns.
- The vehicle's consistently low annual mileage (4,234 miles/year) may contribute to accelerated wear on certain components.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until March 2027, providing peace of mind for immediate roadworthiness.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (4,234 miles/year) suggests light use and less wear.
- No recent MOT failures or advisories, indicating current roadworthiness despite age.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2025) confirms high safety standards for this model.
