2016 AUDI A62.0L Diesel

The MOT record for this 2016 Audi A6 shows a completely clean history across all four recorded tests, with no defects or advisories logged at any point. The most recent test, on 18 June 2025 at 119,522 miles, passed without a single item being noted, which points to a mechanically stable vehicle that has been maintained to a consistent standard. A car that comes through three consecutive annual tests without any recorded advisories, let alone failures, is uncommon and suggests the previous owners addressed wear items before they became reportable problems. The mileage pattern is consistent with an average annual use of roughly 11,950 miles over ten years, which sits comfortably within the typical range for a diesel-engined executive saloon. The recorded mileage between the June 2023 and June 2024 tests shows only 4,119 miles added, indicating a period of lighter use. That was followed by 7,524 miles in the following year, bringing the total back to a steady rhythm. The gap between the March 2022 test and the June 2023 test is fifteen months rather than twelve, so the car was not tested for a longer period than usual, but no backlog of faults emerged when it was eventually presented. Given the absence of any historical advisories, there are no recurring suspension, brake, or structural concerns to track from the official records. That said, a ten-year-old car at 119,522 miles will still be carrying wear on consumables that simply have not yet triggered a testers note. The rear brake discs and pads, suspension bushes, and coil springs on this generation of A6 are all components worth a close look during a private viewing, as are the condition of the underbody for surface corrosion. An independent pre-purchase inspection would be a prudent step to confirm that the clean MOT record reflects genuine component health rather than a sympathetic test on the day. The DVSA history itself gives no cause for alarm, but it only proves the car met minimum legal standards at four specific moments in time.
