2006 Audi A6 4.2L Petrol · DA06 EWW

The Audi A6 passed its most recent MOT on 28 January 2026 at 155,214 miles with no defects recorded, leaving it roadworthy as of that test. The maintenance trend appears stable across the supplied history, with every pass showing a clean sheet and no advisories logged for corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions. The only blemish is a pair of administrative failures on the day before each of the last two passes, where the tester recorded no defects at 155,213 miles on 27 January 2026 and at 151,738 miles on 6 February 2025, suggesting paperwork or presentation issues rather than mechanical fault. Mileage sits at 155,214 against a 2006 build, a typical average of roughly 7,761 miles per year. The record shows very low annual use between tests: only 436 miles from the February 2024 pass at 151,302 miles to the February 2025 attempt, then 3,476 miles to the January 2026 pass. Such limited accumulation points to light running rather than high-stress drivetrain wear, though long stationary periods can age tyres, seals, and brake calipers. Because no test ever flagged structural integrity, binding calipers, coil springs, or worn consumables, the history gives no evidence of recurring mechanical risk. The same-day fail-then-pass pattern in 2025 and 2026 implies the previous keeper addressed minor non-mechanical items promptly. A buyer should still confirm in person that the brake discs are free of lip and rust, the suspension bushes show no perishing, and the underbody carries no hidden corrosion the MOT did not record. Given the clean advisories and modest mileage, this A6 reflects basic but adequate upkeep. Inspect the exhaust for internal degradation and verify tyre age, as low use can mask sidewall cracking unseen by the tester.
