AUDI A52012 · 3.0L DIESEL

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistently clean record over the last five years. The most recent inspection in January 2026 at 135,708 miles resulted in no recorded defects, mirroring the perfect results seen in the four previous annual tests. This lack of advisories suggests that the previous owners maintained a proactive approach to repairs, addressing potential mechanical issues before they could escalate into MOT failures. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,700 miles per annum. Between June 2021 at 120,466 miles and January 2026 at 135,708 miles, the car covered 15,242 miles, indicating steady and predictable usage patterns. The intervals between tests remain regular, with no significant gaps that would suggest the vehicle sat stationary for extended periods, which helps preserve the integrity of seals and prevents the type of corrosion often associated with long-term inactivity. While the MOT history shows no recurring faults, a physical inspection should focus on high-wear components typical for an Audi of this age and mileage. A buyer should specifically check the suspension control arms and rubber bushings for tearing, as these often degrade after 100,000 miles. Given the mileage, the brake discs and calipers should be inspected for thinning or uneven scoring, as the MOT only tests for functional roadworthiness rather than the remaining life of consumable parts. Checking the chassis for any signs of surface or structural corrosion is also necessary to ensure the structural integrity remains as sound as the digital record suggests.
