2011 Audi A5 2.0L Diesel · DP04 FOX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status following a successful MOT on April 10, 2026, 206,127 miles. Despite a recorded failure just two days prior at the same mileage, the subsequent pass with no defects suggests an administrative error or a minor issue rectified immediately rather than a systemic mechanical failure. The maintenance trend appears consistent, as the car has passed its last four annual tests without any recorded advisories or failures in the DVSA database. The mileage profile indicates high intensive use for a fifteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 13,700 miles per annum. Between April 2023 and April 2024, the car covered 10,089 miles, representing a significant spike in usage compared to the 10,000-mile interval seen between the 2024 and 2025 tests. This high-mileage accumulation places considerable stress on the drivetrain, suspension bushings, and braking system, though the lack of advisories suggests these components have been maintained under heavy load. A prospective buyer should focus a physical inspection on high-wear areas typical of high-mileage Audis. Given the 200,000-mile milestone, it is vital to check for play in control arm bushes and shock absorber leaks, which often degrade at this stage. The braking system should be inspected for thinning discs and binding calipers, while the structural integrity of the chassis must be examined for corrosion, as the MOT record does not flag any previous rust issues.
