Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle currently holds a clean bill of health following the MOT test conducted on 26 January 2026 at 75,692 miles. This recent pass, issued without any advisories or defects, indicates a stable and well-maintained condition. The absence of recurring mechanical failures over the last five years suggests that the previous owner addressed essential maintenance promptly, ensuring the vehicle remains in a reliable state for continued road use. The recorded mileage of 75,692 miles over a ten-year lifespan averages approximately 7,500 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage patterns for a premium SUV of this class. The accumulation of miles has remained consistent, with annual increments ranging from roughly 8,000 to 10,000 miles between tests. This steady usage profile is preferable to long periods of inactivity, as it suggests the drivetrain and suspension components have been kept in regular operation rather than suffering from the risks associated with prolonged storage. While the MOT history is largely clean, the 2025 inspection identified uneven tyre wear on the front axle, specifically noted as being worn on the edges. Prospective buyers should verify the current condition of the tyres to ensure the alignment issue was rectified and check for any signs of premature wear on the replacement set. Given the complexity of the Audi Q7 chassis, a physical inspection should also focus on the condition of the air suspension struts and control arm bushes, as these components often begin to show signs of fatigue at this mileage. The lack of structural or braking system advisories is encouraging, but a thorough check of the brake discs and pads remains necessary to confirm they are not nearing the end of their service life.

Our Verdict

This 2016 Audi Q7 diesel is a strong used buy thanks to a clean MOT history with no failures across the last five years. The only advisories flagged are minor tyre wear and child-seat inspection notes, which are easily addressed and not structural concerns.

When viewing this Audi Q7, ask for full service history to confirm the 2,967cc diesel engine and DPF system have been maintained on schedule, as diesel SUVs of this size are sensitive to neglected servicing. Use the 2025 MOT advisory as a negotiating point: both front tyres were worn to 3mm, so budget for a fresh pair of fronts if not already replaced since January 2026. Given the repeated child-seat belt inspection notes from 2022-2024, verify the rear adult belts are accessible and undamaged now that seats may have been removed.

As a 2016 3.0-litre diesel SUV, the Q7 will sit in a higher VED band and likely an elevated insurance group, with real-world fuel economy around 35-45 mpg depending on use. Maintenance for a large Audi diesel is not cheap; expect higher-than-average costs for tyres, brakes, and AdBlue top-ups compared to smaller cars. Estimated annual running cost including fuel, tax, insurance, and typical maintenance is approximately £1,600-£2,000 given the mileage and vehicle class.

The MOT history shows no failures, but the 2025 test noted Nearside and Offside Front tyres worn to 3mm on the edge — inspect all four tyres for uneven wear and confirm replacement if still original. Child seats blocked full belt inspection at the 2022, 2023, and 2024 tests, so physically check the rear seatbelts for fraying or locking faults now that the car is being sold. As no aggregate model data is available, pay attention to the 2,967cc diesel's cold start, DPF regen behaviour, and suspension comfort on this specific 75,692-mile example.

The vehicle (registration K7TDN) has covered 75,692 miles as of its January 2026 MOT, averaging roughly 7,500 miles per year since first registration in March 2016. All five MOT tests from 2022 to 2026 passed with no failures, showing consistent roadworthiness for this black 3.0-litre diesel SUV. Minor advisories included front tyres worn to 3mm in 2025 and child seats limiting belt checks in 2022-2024, but no mechanical or emissions defects were recorded. Without model aggregate data, the individual history is the best indicator and it points to a well-maintained example.

No aggregate MOT reliability data is available for the Audi Q7, so this individual vehicle's clean test history is the primary evidence of condition.
