Our Verdict
A strong contender for buyers seeking a
Prioritise a review of the service history for the 1968cc diesel engine to ensure all scheduled maintenance has been performed. Because the October 2025 MOT highlighted sub-frame corrosion, you should use this as a point of negotiation or request a professional assessment to see if preventative undersealing is required.
Check for any evidence of recent work on the suspension or lighting, as these are common failure points for this model. Ensure that the service book confirms the timing belt and water pump have been replaced if the mileage interval for this specific engine variant has been reached.
The 2.0L diesel engine typically offers strong fuel economy for long-distance driving, though urban costs will be higher. As a 2016 model, it will fall into a standard diesel tax bracket, and insurance groups for the A5 are generally mid-to-high, reflecting its premium positioning.
Annual maintenance costs can be significant for the A5, particularly regarding suspension components. Expect an estimated annual running cost including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine servicing to fall within the £1,800-£2,300 range.
The most critical area for inspection is the rear sub-frame, following the advisory recorded on 2025-10-17 regarding corrosion. While the MOT tester noted it was not seriously weakened at the time, corrosion can progress and should be checked for signs of further deterioration.
Additionally, inspect the suspension arms and headlamps, as aggregate data for over 131,000 A5s identifies these as top failure reasons. Check the tyre tread and condition across all four corners, as tyres are also a frequent cause of MOT failure for this model.
This grey 2016 Audi A5 Diesel has a recorded mileage of 88,562 as of its last test in October 2025. It has a 100% MOT pass rate across four recorded tests, although the most recent inspection noted corrosion on the rear sub-frame. The vehicle's usage is slightly higher than the model average, but the absence of failure records is a positive indicator.
The Audi A5 demonstrates a respectable average MOT pass rate of 83.9% across the analysed population.
