2019 Audi A7 3.0L Diesel · HG19 CTO

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness status based on the most recent inspection. In the February 2023 test at 143,748 miles, the Audi passed with no recorded defects or advisories. This indicates a shift in maintenance standards compared to the previous year, as the mechanical and safety issues identified in 2022 were evidently addressed before the subsequent test. The mileage profile is significantly high for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging over 20,000 miles per annum. Between March 2022 and February 2023, the car covered 29,115 miles in just eleven months. This rapid accumulation of mileage suggests consistent long-distance motorway use, which typically accelerates the wear on heavy-duty components like the drivetrain, turbo, and suspension bushings. Given that the last MOT was conducted over three years ago, the vehicle is currently overdue for its annual safety test, necessitating an immediate assessment to verify current roadworthiness. A buyer must prioritise a physical inspection of the rear suspension and tyre condition. The 2022 test at 114,633 miles flagged both rear tyres as being near the legal limit and showing edge wear, which often points to alignment issues or worn shock absorbers. Given the high-mileage nature of the car, check for play in the control arms and signs of oil leakage from the dampers. Because of the elapsed time since the last record, the state of the brake discs and pads should also be verified, as high-mileage vehicles often suffer from significant thinning of these components.
