AI verdict AVOID 43/100

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

This 2009 Audi has 19 MOT tests on record with a 68% pass rate and 77,811 miles. While mileage is consistent, the pattern of neglect and unresolved safety-critical problems is a major red flag.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, showing normal usage averaging 10,935 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but the vehicle has accumulated significant wear.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS brake failure (Jun 2020) and recurring brake disc advisories (Jun 2019, Jun 2024) indicate severe neglect.
  • Major suspension failures (Jun 2021, Jun 2022) and advisories (Jun 2024) suggest extensive corrosion and structural issues.
  • Major steering failure (Jun 2022) and corroded steering mounting (Jun 2024) point to systemic safety and integrity problems.
  • Recurring registration plate lamp failures (Jun 2019, Jun 2024) and position lamp issues (Jun 2024) show a pattern of electrical neglect.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent mileage trajectory over 17 years, averaging 10,935 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes.
  • Valid MOT until October 2026, indicating it currently meets basic roadworthiness standards.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
  • The vehicle has a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating, suggesting good inherent safety design.
