Our Verdict
Strongly recommended for buyers seeking
Given the low mileage, the primary focus should be on the service history to ensure oil changes were performed at regular intervals regardless of the distance driven. You should specifically verify when the timing belt and water pump were last replaced, as these components often require changing based on age rather than mileage alone.
Negotiate based on any missing service records or the age of the tyres, as low-mileage cars can sometimes suffer from tyre perishing. Ensure the service book confirms the 3.0L engine has been maintained according to Audi's specified intervals to protect the turbocharger and DPF.
The 2967cc diesel engine provides strong performance but places the vehicle in a higher VED (road tax) bracket compared to smaller A6 variants. Insurance costs will be typical for a premium executive car of this engine size, and while the V6 is efficient on long motorway runs, urban fuel economy will be lower.
Maintenance costs for the A6 can be higher than average due to the complexity of the 3.0L engine and the cost of premium parts. Expect higher expenditure on tyres and brakes compared to a standard family car.
While this specific vehicle has no recorded MOT defects, aggregate data for the A6 shows that headlamps, suspension arms, and tyres are common failure points. Carefully inspect the headlight lenses for clouding or moisture and check the suspension for any signs of wear or knocking during a test drive.
Check the black paintwork for swirl marks or chips, and inspect the interior leather for wear. Since the MOT record is clean, your inspection should focus on the mechanical components not covered by the MOT, such as the gearbox smoothness and the condition of the air conditioning system.
This 2014 black Audi A6 3.0L Diesel has recorded only 63,961 miles as of December 2025, which is well below the expected mileage for its age. The MOT history is notably clean, with five consecutive passes between 2022 and 2025 and no defects recorded in any of those tests. It represents a low-usage example of a high-capacity diesel executive saloon.
The Audi A6 demonstrates a solid reliability profile with an average MOT pass rate of 85.2% across 143,641 analysed vehicles.
