2017 Audi A6 4.0L Petrol · HES 51

The vehicle presents a mixed but generally stable maintenance profile. In the most recent October 2025 test at 47,489 miles, the car passed with only a borderline issue on the offside front tyre, indicating that the current tyre condition is acceptable. The suspension and steering components have been free of defects since 2023, suggesting the chassis remains structurally sound. The brake system has not shown any recurring faults, and exhaust emissions remain within legal limits. Overall, the roadworthiness is satisfactory, though the low annual mileage of approximately 5,277 miles raises concerns about potential component degradation from extended periods of inactivity, particularly for rubber elements like suspension bushes and brake hoses. A comprehensive pre-purchase inspection is advised to verify the general mechanical condition, focusing on the steering rack and suspension bushes. Buyers should also assess the interior, electrical systems, and fluid levels, as low usage can mask issues like electrical faults or coolant leaks.
