Our Verdict
Proceed with caution and budget for imme
When negotiating the price, use the recent MOT history as leverage. The vehicle has a documented history of running components—specifically brakes and tyres—to their legal limits. You should request evidence that the issues identified in the November 2025 failure (tyres and brake pads) were actually rectified following the pass.
Ask the seller for a detailed service history to see if the 2024 failure regarding pitted brake discs was addressed with new discs or just pads. Given the 2024 failure also noted non-conforming registration plates, ensure all exterior lighting and plates are currently compliant with UK standards.
As a 2.0L petrol model, running costs will be moderate. Fuel economy for this engine variant typically sits in the mid-to-high range for a premium saloon/coupe, though actual figures will depend on driving style.
Insurance groups for the Audi A5 are generally mid-range, and you should obtain a specific quote based on your profile. Maintenance costs for Audi vehicles tend to be higher than mass-market brands, particularly when replacing brake discs and pads, which have been a recurring theme in this vehicle's MOT record.
A thorough inspection of the braking system is essential. The MOT history shows that in November 2024, all four brake pads were thin, and in November 2025, all four pads and both front tyres were at or near the legal limit. Check the remaining tread depth on all tyres and look for any signs of uneven wear that might suggest alignment issues.
Examine the front brake discs closely; the 2024 MOT recorded the front inner faces as pitted or scored. Ensure these have been replaced and not just the pads. Finally, check the registration plates to ensure they meet the legal requirements mentioned in the 2024 failure.
This 2019 Audi A5, finished in black with a 1984cc petrol engine, has covered 45,877 miles since its first registration in February 2019. The MOT history reveals several failures related to consumable components, specifically brake pads, discs, and tyres. While the most recent test in November 2025 was a pass, it followed a significant failure involving all four brake pads and both front tyres.
Aggregate data for this model shows an average MOT pass rate of 83.9%, with common failures involving tyres, suspension arms, and engine MIL issues.
