AUDI A62017 · 2.0L Diesel

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-07-10 at 119,281 miles recorded a pass with no defects, but this follows a failed test on the same date and mileage, also with no defects. This pattern suggests potential inconsistencies in testing or reporting, though no technical issues were formally noted. The prior MOT in 2024-06-18 at 91,373 miles and 2023-06-16 at 75,438 miles both passed without defects, indicating a stable maintenance record over the past three years. However, the lack of recorded faults despite high mileage raises questions about the thoroughness of inspections or the vehicle’s actual condition. The vehicle’s mileage of 119,281 miles at 9 years old equates to an average of 13,253 miles annually, significantly above the UK’s typical usage for this age. A sharp increase from 75,438 miles in 2023 to 91,373 in 2024 (15,935 miles) and then to 119,281 in 2025 (27,908 miles) suggests rapid accumulation, which could accelerate wear on components like brake discs, suspension bushes, and drivetrain parts. The absence of advisories or failures in the MOT history does not confirm mechanical integrity, as some issues may not trigger immediate failure. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension system for worn coil springs or bushings, which can cause uneven tyre wear and handling issues. Brake components, including calipers and discs, should be checked for corrosion or uneven wear, as high mileage often exacerbates these problems. Structural rust, particularly in the underbody or chassis, warrants scrutiny, as it may not appear in MOT tests. Additionally, the exhaust system and emission controls should be verified, as these can degrade over time without triggering immediate failures. The vehicle’s maintenance history lacks depth, so a physical inspection is critical to confirm its roadworthiness.
