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

This 2008 Audi has 14 MOT tests on record with a 79% pass rate and 36,520 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the pattern of neglect and unverified usage warrants careful consideration.

The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage before Oct 2022 (174 mi/yr equivalent), followed by a 4-year gap in MOT history, and then a significant drop in annual usage post-2023.

Things to check

  • Recurring brake disc advisories (Oct 2022, Sep 2023) indicate chronic neglect.
  • Mileage anomaly: 174 mi/yr before Oct 2022, then 4-year gap, and 8,646 mi/year post-2023.
  • Offside Front Tyre had a cut deep enough to reach ply/cords (Oct 2022 failure).
  • Not ULEZ-compliant, incurring daily charges in London.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2025): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until
