2017 AUDI A52.0L DIESEL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a transition from a clean record to emerging mechanical wear. While the car passed four consecutive tests between 2022 and 2025 without any defects, the most recent inspection in February 2026 at 68,980 miles identified multiple advisories. This indicates that the vehicle is now entering a phase where components are beginning to require attention or replacement. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use vehicle profile, averaging approximately 7,600 miles per year. Between the February 2022 test at 42,848 miles and the February 2026 test at 68,980 miles, the vehicle covered 26,132 miles. This steady accumulation suggests regular use rather than long periods of stagnation, which often helps prevent the degradation of rubber components and fluid seals. A buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of the front suspension. The February 2026 test flagged worn bushes on both the nearside and offside front lower suspension arm pins. While these did not result in an MOT failure at the time of the test, the degradation of rubber suspension elements is progressive and will eventually affect vehicle handling and tyre wear. The nearside front tyre is also noted as being near the legal limit and worn on the edge, which frequently indicates an alignment issue or simply the need for immediate replacement.
