2015 AUDI A52.0L Diesel

The Audi A5 presents as roadworthy following the most recent test on 15 May 2025 at 92,354 miles, where the tester recorded no defects and issued a pass. The maintenance trend reads as stable across the available history, with every annual examination from 22 March 2022 through to the 2025 pass showing clean results. A single anomaly appears in the form of a failure on 14 May 2025 at 92,286 miles carrying no recorded defects, reversed by a pass one day later at marginally higher mileage, which suggests an administrative or presentation issue at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault on the vehicle. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for an eleven-year-old car, averaging roughly 8,400 miles per year against the 92,354 miles recorded. The records show steady annual use: 70,534 miles on 22 March 2022, 75,927 on 27 May 2023, 83,169 on 29 April 2024, and 92,286 to 92,354 across May 2025. No rapid accumulation or prolonged standing gaps emerge from the data, and the sparse but consistent entries indicate the previous keeper maintained a regular testing cycle without lapsing. No advisories or defects touching suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion appear in any test, so the documented history gives no grounds to suspect hidden wear in those areas. The clean run implies reasonable upkeep, though a buyer should still commission an independent inspection of the underbody for structural rust and check the condition of consumable items such as tyres and wiper blades, which fall outside MOT defect capture until worn beyond limits. The unexplained fail-with-no-defects on 14 May 2025 warrants a request for the full DVSA failure sheet from the seller to confirm no omitted fault code or documentation error exists. Beyond that clarification, the A5's MOT trail supports a sound mechanical baseline for its age and mileage.
