AUDI A52011 · 2.0L DIESEL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in October 2025 with 104,629 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable but reactive. While the car failed just two days prior to that test due to a fractured offside front coil spring, the repair was addressed immediately to secure a clean pass. The 2024 test showed no defects, suggesting that the mechanical issues are currently being managed as they are identified during the annual testing process. At 15 years old, the recorded mileage of 104,629 averages to approximately 7,000 miles per year, which aligns with typical low-mileage usage. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with roughly 9,000 miles driven between the 2024 and 2025 tests, and approximately 3,500 miles covered in the year preceding that interval. This regularity suggests the vehicle has not sat stationary for long periods, which generally benefits the condition of rubber components and prevents fluid seals. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the suspension system given the history of issues. The 2022 test flagged worn suspension arm bushes and oil misting on all four shock absorbers. While these were advisories at the time, the subsequent failure of a coil spring in 2025 indicates the suspension components are reaching fatigue limits. The recurring mentions of tyres worn on edges in 2022 and 2023 also suggest a history of neglecting basic maintenance or ignoring alignment issues, which can cause premature wear on drivetrain components.
