2011 AUDI A11.6L Diesel

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a clean pass on December 12, 2025. This successful result immediately followed a significant failure just one day prior at the same mileage, due to a major exhaust leak that prevented the completion of the emissions test. While the repair appears to have been effective given the subsequent pass, the history shows a pattern of reactive maintenance regarding the exhaust system, where issues were only addressed once once they triggered a test failure rather than through a proactive service schedule. At 122,150 miles, the car has covered a consistent average of approximately 8,000 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a fifteen-year-old vehicle. The timeline is steady, with no significant gaps in testing that would suggest long periods of stationary storage or neglect. Between December 2023 and December 2025, the vehicle clocked 23,535 miles, indicating a stable rate of use that keeps mechanical components active, though the age of the vehicle naturally increases the risk of rubber-based perish and fluid degradation. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the exhaust system to ensure the repair from the December 2025 failure is robust and not merely a temporary fix. The record shows recurring exhaust deterioration dating back to 2020 and 2021, suggesting the manifold or primary piping may be prone to corrosion. Additionally, the history frequently flags issues with uneven tyre wear and low tread, particularly between 2015 and 2021. This warrants a physical check of the suspension geometry, ball joints, and bushes to ensure that a misalignment is not causing premature tyre degradation.
