2016 Audi Q5 2.0L Diesel · B22 HAS

The Audi Q5 presents as roadworthy following the most recent test on 9 October 2025 at 104,270 miles, where it passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, with three consecutive annual passes and no advisories or mechanical faults flagged across the available history. The two failed entries on the same dates as the passes, at 93,457 miles in October 2024 and 104,269 miles in October 2025, show no defects recorded and were immediately superseded by clean passes, indicating administrative re-tests rather than genuine mechanical failures. Mileage progression is consistent with typical use for a 2016 vehicle. The record shows 82,063 miles at the October 2023 test, rising to 93,457 miles in October 2024 and 104,270 miles by October 2025. That equates to roughly 11,000 miles per year, marginally above the 10,427 annual average for the age, with no standing periods or sudden accumulation spikes. The DVSA data is sparse but entirely clean, offering no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred structural repairs. Given the absence of any recorded advisories on tyres, brake discs, suspension bushes, coil springs, or corrosion, the previous owner appears to have maintained the vehicle to a standard that satisfied testers without flagged wear. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of the suspension components and brake calipers, as ten-year-old Audis commonly develop worn bushes or binding rears that a pass with no defects does not rule out. Structural integrity and exhaust emissions require physical verification beneath the car. The Q5's subframes and sills are prone to corrosion by this mileage even when an MOT shows nothing. Confirm the underbody is free of rust and the DPF system functions correctly before purchase.
