2012 Audi Q5 2.0L Diesel · A6 RXC

The Audi Q5 presents as roadworthy following the most recent DVSA test on 9 December 2025 at 134,640 miles, where the vehicle passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the five-year history, with every annual test from 15 December 2022 through to the latest examination returning a pass and no advisories logged. A failed entry on 9 December 2025 at identical mileage shows no defects recorded, indicating an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault, immediately followed by a clean pass the same day. Annual mileage averages 9,617 against the vehicle's 14-year life, a typical figure for this age of premium SUV. The records show steady accumulation: 97,557 miles in December 2022, 108,426 in December 2023, 123,727 in December 2024, and 134,640 by December 2025. The roughly 11,000-mile yearly increments reveal consistent use without standing periods or abrupt high-mileage spikes. The DVSA data is sparse on faults, with no advisories or repairs flagged at any stage. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc wear given the car's age and 134,640 miles. The clean MOT trail offers no warning of corrosion or structural decline, yet testers routinely miss early bush degradation and underbody rust on these platforms. Verify the December 2025 fail reason with the selling garage, as the zero-defect rejection points to a documentation or equipment issue rather than a roadworthiness concern.
