2002 Audi A6 2.5L Diesel · AM52 CBO

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the final available MOT data. The most recent test conducted on 09 December 2021 at 148,056 miles passed with no recorded defects, indicating the car met the minimum safety standards at that time. While a failure was noted on 02 December 2020, the immediate pass on the same day suggests a minor issue was rectified quickly without a pattern of mechanical neglect. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-useage vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 6,169 miles per year. Between June 2018 at 136,510 miles and December 2021 at 148,056 miles, the car covered 11,546 miles at a steady rate. This low annual mileage often reduces the wear on drivetrain components and braking systems, though the significant gap of over four years since the last recorded MOT in December 2021 means the current mechanical state is unverified. The vehicle has likely sat for an extended period or been used infrequently since its last official inspection. A buyer must focus the physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis, as older Audi A6 models are prone to corrosion in the sills and rear subframe mounting points. Given the long interval since the last test, check the rubber suspension bushes for cracking or tearing which may have perished from age rather than use. Additionally, inspect the brake system for seized calipers or pitted discs, as low-mileage vehicles suffer from surface rust and component seizing when not driven regularly.
