AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The Audi A6 presents a current roadworthy status with a clean pass recorded on 11 July 2025 at 121,003 miles, and the maintenance trend across the supplied records reads as stable with no defects or advisories logged at any test. The vehicle cleared its most recent examination without mechanical or structural flags, following a brief fail on 12 June 2025 at 120,975 miles that similarly listed no defects. This paired fail-pass pattern in both June 2024 and June 2025, with zero recorded faults, indicates consistent procedural outcomes rather than escalating wear. Odometer readings show typical use for a 2006 model. The car covered 112,424 miles by 24 May 2023, rose to 117,449 miles on 19 June 2024, and reached 121,003 miles by July 2025. That equates to roughly 5,000 to 6,000 miles per year, a modest accumulation that aligns with the 20-year lifespan and suggests gentle motoring rather than high-mileage punishment. The record is sparse, containing only five entries across three years, yet each pass and fail carries no defect notes, so the history appears clean on paper. The official record flags no advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or structural corrosion across any test. The buyer must nonetheless verify structural integrity of chassis legs and sill panels, as twenty-year-old Audis often conceal rust there. A technician should probe calipers for binding and measure exhaust emissions independently, since the clean MOT entries offer no guarantee of component lifespan on a vehicle of this age.
