2017 Audi R8 5.2L Petrol · 5 GAL

The vehicle maintains an excellent standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test on 25 March 2026 at 7,026 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating a stable maintenance trend over the last five years. This performance suggests the car has been kept in a good condition without the mechanical degradation or structural corrosion typically seen in high-performance machinery. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 780 miles per year. Between February 2022 and March 2023, the car covered only 903 miles, moving from 5,355 to 6,258 miles. A more significant increase occurred between March 2024 and March 2025, where the vehicle recorded 323 miles in a thirteen-month period. While the low annual usage limits wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it increases the risk of issues involving long periods of the vehicle sitting stationary. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer must conduct a physical inspection focused on common low-mileage storage issues. One should check for flat spots on the tyres, perished rubber bushings, and seized brake calipers which often occur from infrequent use. The brake discs should be inspected for surface rust or pitting, as the car has not been driven enough to keep the surfaces clean. Additionally, fluid levels should be verified for moisture contamination or degradation that occurs over time regardless of mileage recorded.
