2010 Audi Q7 S Line TDI Quattro A 3.0L Diesel · IJI 529

The latest MOT on 27 September 2025 was a PASS at 138,382 mi, which is the most recent record and shows the vehicle currently meets the legal safety and emissions standards. The only other MOT entries are a mixture of passes and fails, but none of the failed tests listed any specific defects – the failures were recorded without details. This suggests the failures were likely administrative (e.g., timing of the test, paperwork) rather than indicative of a recurring mechanical problem. Across the four‑year span the pattern is essentially stable: two passes and two fails, all with “no defects recorded”. There is no evidence of a worsening trend in the core systems that MOT checks (brakes, lights, exhaust, etc.). The vehicle has maintained a consistent mileage progression, adding roughly 2 500 mi each year, which aligns with the average 8‑9 k mi per year expected for a 16‑year‑old car. That mileage level does not point to heavy abuse, but it also does not guarantee that wear‑items such as suspension bushes, clutch, or timing belt are untouched – they simply have not yet manifested as MOT‑visible faults. Given the clean MOT record and typical annual mileage, the main risk for a buyer is the usual age‑related wear on consumables (tires, brakes, fluid seals) rather than any specific defect highlighted by the MOT history. The lack of recorded defects means you will need to rely on a thorough visual and mechanical inspection to uncover any hidden issues. Key checks for a prospective buyer: - Inspect the tyre tread depth and look for uneven wear that could signal suspension or alignment problems.
