2008 AUDI A62.0L Petrol

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, showing a consistent maintenance trend over the last four years. Although the most recent test on 22 September 2025 at 316,246 miles resulted in an initial failure, the immediate pass upon retest with no recorded defects suggests a minor or isolated issue that was rectified quickly. Since September 2022, the Audi has passed every annual inspection without any advisory notices, indicating a period of relatively clean mechanical operation. The mileage profile reflects consistent high-intensity usage, averaging approximately 17,500 miles per annum. Between the September 2022 test at 311,665 miles and the September 2025 test at 316,246 miles, the vehicle covered 4,581 miles. This steady accumulation suggests the car is used regularly for long-distance driving which often prevents the dry-seal issues associated with stationary vehicles. However, the total distance of over 316,000 miles places significant stress on the drivetrain, turbocharger components, and suspension bushings. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on components most susceptible to high-mileage fatigue. Despite the lack of MOT advisories, the age and mileage of this Audi demand a close check for structural corrosion on the subframe and exhaust mounting points. Inspect for any signs of oil leaks from the engine head or gearbox, as seals are likely nearing the end of their service life cycle. Given the high mileage, verifying the condition of the shock absorbers and the integrity of the control arms is essential to ensure the suspension is not nearing a costly failure.
