2009 Audi A6 2.0L Diesel · GU59 JSY

The 2009 Audi A6 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 30 July 2025 at 185,963 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the preceding annual tests show the same clean outcome. The vehicle carries no live advisories or outstanding mechanical flags across the available five-year window. Recorded mileage sits at 185,963 against a 2009 build date, equating to roughly 10,900 miles per year and reflecting typical use for the age. The gap between the 21 December 2022 test at 146,187 miles and the 5 January 2024 test at 162,644 miles shows about 16,400 miles added in just over twelve months, a slightly elevated but not abnormal rate. From January 2024 to July 2025 the car covered 23,319 miles, again within expected bounds. The DVSA history is sparse, with only a single failed entry on 5 January 2024 that was immediately retested the same day and passed with no defects logged, suggesting an administrative or minor pre-check issue rather than a fault left unremedied. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc wear given the high absolute mileage and 17-year age. The clean MOT record means no corrosion, exhaust emission breaches, or structural integrity concerns were raised by testers, but the absence of advisories at this mileage implies consumables were either renewed promptly or simply not flagged. Given the twin tests on 5 January 2024 with no defects cited, previous keepers appear to have maintained basic statutory compliance, though the sparse record limits insight into proactive upkeep. Prior to purchase, verify service history for timing belt, transmission, and underbody condition, as the MOT alone cannot evidence drivetrain care on a 185,000-mile executive saloon.
