Our Verdict
This Audi A7 presents a consistent MOT r
When inspecting this A7, pay close attention to the suspension components. The 2021 MOT noted perishing on the front lower suspension arm bushes; while these were not flagged as failures, they are common wear points on this chassis and should be checked for any play or knocking sounds during a test drive.
Verify that the vehicle has been serviced according to Audi's schedule, particularly regarding the 3.0-litre diesel engine's oil and filter requirements. Given the history of tyre wear on the inner edges, ensure you check the alignment, as this can indicate tracking issues that lead to premature tyre replacement.
As a 3.0-litre diesel, this Audi A7 sits in a higher tax bracket and will likely command significant insurance premiums due to its performance capabilities. Fuel economy will vary heavily depending on whether the vehicle is used for long motorway journeys or urban commuting.
Maintenance costs for this model can be higher than average, particularly for tyres and complex suspension parts. You should budget for an annual running cost of approximately £1,800–£2,200, accounting for fuel, VED, insurance, and routine servicing.
Focus your inspection on the tyres, as the MOT history shows recurring advisories for edge wear. Uneven tyre wear often points to suspension geometry issues or alignment problems that need professional adjustment to prevent premature replacement costs.
Additionally, inspect the front suspension arms for any signs of perishing or movement, as this was a noted advisory in 2021. Ensure all electronic systems, including the infotainment and lighting, are functioning as expected, as these are common areas for ageing luxury vehicles.
This 2015 silver Audi A7 has covered 92,347 miles since its registration in November 2015. Its MOT history shows a clean pass in the most recent 2025 test, with a history of minor tyre and suspension advisories. The vehicle aligns well with the model's typical usage patterns and maintains a consistent testing frequency.
The Audi A7 generally performs in line with the 88.5% average MOT pass rate for the model range, with tyres and lighting being the most common failure points.
