AUDI A52014 · 1.8L Petrol

This Audi A5 presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 29 April 2025 at 56,064 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent five-year trend of flawless test results, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard without the recurring mechanical failures often seen in cars of this vintage. The mileage is remarkably low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 4,672 miles per year. The accumulation has remained steady and predictable, growing from 31,992 miles in May 2021 to 56,064 miles by April 2025. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or suspicious gaps that would suggest undisclosed heavy use or prolonged periods of neglect. While the MOT record is clean, the low annual mileage introduces specific risks associated with vehicle dormancy. A buyer should physically inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting and check for binding calipers, as brakes can seize when not used frequently. Rubber components, including suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls, should be examined for perishing or dry rot, which occurs regardless of mileage. Given the lack of flagged structural issues or exhaust emissions failures over the last five years, there is no evidence of systemic corrosion or engine degradation. The primary focus for a physical inspection should remain on the health of the fluids and the condition of the tyres to ensure the car has not suffered from under-use.
