2016 AUDI A62.0L DIESEL

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, passing its most recent MOT test on 26 September 2025 at 134,310 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable as the car has consistently cleared the testing requirements following initial failures. While the record shows failures in both 2023 and 2025, the immediate success of the re-tests suggests the previous owner addressed the identified defects promptly rather than allowing them to persist or deteriorate. At 134,310 miles over ten years, this Audi A6 has averaged approximately 13,400 miles per annum. This high level of usage suggests consistent motorway driving which typically places different stresses on components compared to short-city trips. The mileage accumulation is steady, with roughly 8,000 miles covered between October 2023 and October 2024, and another 8,700 miles covered between October 2024 and September 2025. This regular interval indicates the vehicle has not sat stationary for long periods, which helps prevent seal degradation and fluid stagnation. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the suspension geometry and bushings, as high-mileage German luxury saloons often suffer from wear in control arms and drop links. Given the failures on the record, close attention to the brake system for binding calipers or thin discs is necessary to ensure the previous issues were fully rectified. The chassis should also be inspected for structural corrosion, particularly around the mounting points, as the high-mileage profile accelerates the impact of road salts and environmental exposure over time.
