2017 Audi Q5 2.0L Diesel · DR55 ABA

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean roadworthiness status at its most recent inspection. The January 2026 test at 81,576 miles returned no defects, indicating the car was in a compliant state at the start of the year. This follows a clean pass in January 2025 at 72,028 miles, suggesting that the mechanical condition has remained consistent over the last two years without any recurring failures or escalating advisories. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a typical usage pattern for a nine-year-old vehicle. The car has covered approximately 81,576 miles, averaging roughly 9,000 miles per year. Between the January 2025 and January 2026 tests, the vehicle covered 9,548 miles, while the period between November 2023 and January 2025 saw an increase of 5,760 miles. This steady progression suggests regular use rather than long periods of inactivity, which helps mitigate risks associated with seized components or perished rubber seals. The only recorded mechanical issues occurred during the November 2023 test at 66,268 miles, where the tester flagged both front tyres as being worn close to the legal limit or worn on the edges, alongside an unrepairable nail in the nearside front tyre. These faults represent standard consumable wear rather than systemic mechanical failure. The fact that these issues were resolved and did not reappear in the 2025 or 2026 tests indicates that the previous owner addressed these maintenance requirements promptly. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the current condition of the tyres and brake pads to ensure the recent clean passes reflect ongoing upkeep. While the MOT history shows no evidence of structural corrosion, suspension bush degradation, or exhaust emissions issues, the 2023 tyre advisories suggest that monitoring tread depth and edge wear should remain a priority. Given the lack of recorded faults regarding brakes or suspension in recent years, the vehicle appears to have been maintained to a reliable standard.
