2010 Audi A5 2.0L Diesel · BJ51 AMY

The vehicle has passed its most recent MOT test in September 2025, with a mileage of 164,854 miles. However, the maintenance trend is concerning, as several advisories have been flagged over the years, including worn tyres, suspension arm pins or bushes, and shock absorbers. The recent test highlighted worn nearside and offside front tyres, which is a recurring issue. This suggests that the maintenance trend is worsening, with the vehicle requiring more frequent attention to critical components. The vehicle's mileage pattern is typical for its age, with approximately 10,303 miles per year accumulated over the past 16 years. However, the data reveals a few notable gaps, such as the period between 2016 and 2015, where the vehicle accumulated only 12,023 miles over 15 months. This could indicate a period of reduced usage or long-term storage. Conversely, the rapid mileage accumulation in the preceding years, particularly between 2014 and 2015, where 21,385 miles were added in just 13 months, may suggest more frequent use or increased driving intensity. A buyer should inspect the vehicle's suspension and steering components in person, given the history of worn suspension arm pins or bushes and slight external damage to the shock absorbers. The recent test highlighted worn tyres, which should be inspected for any further degradation. Additionally, the vehicle's brake system should be examined, as the 2019 test revealed a fractured or broken offside front coil spring, which could indicate underlying issues with the braking system's structural integrity. The vehicle's exhaust emissions should also be checked, as there is no recorded data on this aspect.
