2018 Audi A5 2.0L Petrol · KY18 AOK

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean MOT history leading up to the most recent test. The December 2025 inspection at 73,498 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, indicating that the vehicle has maintained a consistent standard of roadworthiness over the last few years. This follows a clean pass in December 2024 at 64,483 miles, suggesting that the previous owner has addressed any minor issues that may have arisen during the preceding year. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with the vehicle's age. Between the January 2024 test at 54,013 miles and the December 2025 test at 73,498 miles, the car covered approximately 19,465 miles, which aligns with typical annual usage for a premium saloon. The data shows a steady progression of mileage without any sudden spikes or long periods of inactivity that might suggest mechanical deterioration from standing. The single failure recorded on 2 January 2024 at 54,013 miles was resolved during the same session, which is common for minor consumable items. While the MOT record is clean, the lack of advisories in recent years does not account for the mechanical condition of components that do not trigger an automatic failure. A physical inspection should focus on the suspension system, specifically checking for worn control arm bushes or leaking dampers, given the mileage. The brake discs and pads should be examined for uneven wear or scoring, and the underside should be checked for any signs of corrosion or oil leaks that may not have reached a threshold requiring an MOT failure. The overall trend is positive, showing a vehicle that has been regularly inspected and maintained. The absence of recurring issues like binding calipers or structural rust in the recent history is a good indicator of general upkeep. A buyer should still verify the service history to ensure that scheduled oil changes and fluid replacements have been carried out to manufacturer specifications, as the MOT record only captures minimum legal requirements rather than comprehensive mechanical servicing.
