2011 Audi A5 1.7L Diesel · DA11 BNJ

The Audi A5 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 14 May 2025 at 85,566 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior annual test on 15 May 2024 at 84,598 miles also passed clean. The vehicle shows no worsening faults across the available history, and the latest result confirms acceptable condition for its age. Recorded mileage sits low for a 2011 vehicle, totalling 85,566 miles or roughly 5,704 per year. The owner added only 968 miles between the July 2023 test at 81,606 miles and the May 2024 test at 84,598 miles, then just 968 miles again to May 2025. Such low annual use over fifteen years suggests prolonged standing periods, which can allow corrosion and perished rubber components to develop despite clean MOT outcomes. The record shows two failed tests on 12 July 2023 and 9 May 2024, both at the same mileages as the subsequent passes two days later, with no defects listed. This pattern indicates administrative or presentation issues at initial submission rather than mechanical faults, as the retests passed without recorded rectification. No advisories for suspension bushes, brake discs, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity appear in any entry. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underbody corrosion, suspension arms, and brake calipers given the low-use profile and age. Standing time hides damp-related degradation that MOT passes without advisories will not reveal. Verify service history to confirm fluids and consumables were renewed despite the limited mileage.
