2014 Audi A5 4.2L Petrol · FP14 FAK

The 2014 Audi A5 presents a stable roadworthiness status with no recorded defects across its five most recent MOT tests. The September 2025 test at 106,468 miles passed cleanly with no advisories, continuing an unbroken pass sequence since November 2021. The maintenance trend is steady and shows no worsening mechanical faults or recurring failure patterns. Annual mileage sits at roughly 8,872 miles, typical for a twelve-year-old vehicle. The records show low yearly accumulation: 7,559 miles between the November 2021 and August 2022 tests, then 3,659 miles to August 2023, 1,974 to September 2024, and only 989 miles to September 2025. Such low recent use suggests the car stood idle for extended periods, which can promote perished rubber components and corrosion despite clean test results. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the age and low-use pattern. Standing time raises the risk of seized calipers and flat-spotted tyres not captured in a pass-only history. The absence of advisories means no specific structural or exhaust emissions concerns were flagged by testers. Given the sparse but clean record, verify service history independently and check for underlying corrosion on subframes and sills. The previous owner clearly kept the car to a basic legal standard with no deferred major repairs shown, yet low mileage alone does not confirm thorough preventative maintenance.
