2017 AUDI A62.0L Diesel

The 2017 Audi A6 presents a stable roadworthiness trend, with the most recent test on 9 September 2025 at 125,996 miles returning a pass and no defects recorded. Prior annual tests in September 2024 at 118,174 miles and August 2023 at 107,412 miles also passed cleanly. The maintenance record shows no recurring advisories or mechanical faults across the available history, indicating consistent statutory compliance over the last three years. Mileage stands at 125,996 against a nine-year age, equating to roughly 14,000 miles per year and placing this estate above average use for its class. The records show steady annual accumulation: 101,947 miles in September 2022, rising to 107,412 by August 2023, 118,174 by September 2024, and 125,996 by September 2025. A single anomaly appears on 20 September 2022, when the car failed at 101,947 miles with no defects listed, then passed the next day on a fresh certificate at identical mileage, suggesting an administrative or retest procedural issue rather than a mechanical defect. The clean pass history gives no flagged wear on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or structural corrosion for the buyer to chase. Absence of advisories does not exempt the vehicle from in-person checks given the high mileage. A pre-purchase inspection should still measure front and rear brake pad thickness, assess damper condition, and confirm underbody structural integrity for rust given the salt-exposure years. The 2022 same-mileage fail-pass pair implies the previous owner addressed whatever halted the first test promptly, but the DVSA entry logs no defect detail. Buyers should obtain the physical failure notice if available. Otherwise the record reflects disciplined MOT adherence with no evidence of skipped upkeep or deferred consumable replacement.
