2020 Audi A5 S Line 35 TDI Mhev S-A 2.0L Diesel · LA19 AAH

The vehicle remains currently roadworthy, though the maintenance history indicates a trend of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. The most recent MOT test in February 2026 at 73,482 miles passed with only a minor advisory regarding windscreen damage. While the car has consistently passed its annual inspections, the recurring presence of tyre issues across the last three years suggests that the owner only addresses components once they reach legal limits or failure points. The mileage profile reflects a high-utilization pattern, averaging approximately 12,200 miles per year over its six-year life. Between the 2024 test at 61,576 miles and the 2025 test at 70,702 miles, the vehicle covered nearly 9,000 miles, followed by another 2,780 miles in the final interval. This consistent accumulation suggests regular motorway use, which places specific stresses on the suspension bushings, braking system, and drivetrain compared to lower-mileage city cars. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension, as the record flagged edge wear on both front tyres in 2024 and 2025. This persistent uneven wear often points to underlying alignment issues or worn control arm bushes that have not yet been properly addressed. The braking system should also be checked for thin discs or sticking calipers, as the high mileage increases the likelihood of accelerated consumable wear. Given the repeated reports of windscreen damage across three consecutive tests, verify if the glass has been replaced or if the structural cracks remain, which could eventually lead to failure.
