2016 Audi Q7 3.0L Diesel · AA07 XHA

The Audi Q7 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 19 December 2025 at 106,570 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results across the prior four years. Annual mileage has tracked close to the expected norm for a 2016 vehicle. The records show 66,692 miles in December 2021, rising to 81,932 by December 2022, 90,329 in December 2023, 97,866 in December 2024, and 106,570 in December 2025. The largest single-year gain was 14,240 miles between the 2021 and 2022 tests; the remaining years each added roughly 7,000 to 8,600 miles. No standing gaps or abrupt accumulation appear in the data, and the DVSA history carries no advisories or failures at any stage. A clean MOT sheet does not exempt the buyer from physical inspection. At over 106,000 miles and ten years old, the Q7 warrants hands-on checks of front and rear suspension bushes, coil springs, and damper condition, none of which the tester flagged but all of which degrade with age. Brake disc thickness, caliper operation, and handbrake travel should be measured directly. Structural underbody corrosion and exhaust emissions hardware must be examined on a ramp, since the MOT records no corrosion or leak entries but offer no proof of condition beneath the sills. The absence of fault history implies conscientious prior upkeep, yet consumable items such as tyres, wiper blades, and fluid intervals remain outside the MOT scope and require verification before purchase.
