Our Verdict

A strong recommendation for buyers seeki

Prioritise a review of the full service history to ensure the 3996cc TFSI engine has been serviced at the recommended intervals. Given the vehicle's performance capabilities and weight, pay close attention to the condition of the brake discs and pads, as these are high-wear items. Ensure that the Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicle (MHEV) system is operating correctly and that all manufacturer recalls have been completed.

When negotiating, consider the above-average mileage relative to other RS Q8s. While the MOT record is clean, the higher usage suggests a greater need for upcoming preventative maintenance on wear-and-tear components.

Running costs for this vehicle will be substantial. The 4.0L V8 engine results in high fuel consumption and a high insurance group. Road tax will be significant due to the engine size and emissions profile of a high-performance SUV.

Maintenance costs are typically higher for RS models, particularly regarding specialised tyres and braking systems. Combined with fuel, tax, and insurance, the annual expenditure will be high.

Carefully inspect the tyres for wear and tear; aggregate data shows that tyres are the most common MOT failure reason for this model. Examine the black paintwork for stone chips or imperfections, which are common on vehicles used for high-speed motorway driving.

Although the MOT history shows no defects, a physical inspection of the suspension and steering components is recommended given the vehicle's weight and the 67,255 miles covered. Check for any signs of fluid leaks around the engine bay.

This 2021 Audi RS Q8 in Carbon Black has recorded 67,255 miles. Its MOT history is exceptionally clean, with three consecutive passes and no defects recorded between March 2024 and August 2025. While it has covered more ground than the average RS Q8, the lack of recorded failures is a positive data point.

The RS Q8 has a strong reliability reputation based on aggregate data, with a 92.1% MOT pass rate and tyre wear being the primary failure point.
