2012 Audi A5 2.0L Petrol · LC62 GGA

This 2012 Audi A5 has covered approximately 127,389 miles, which aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. The consistent annual mileage suggests the car has been kept in regular service rather than sitting idle for extended periods, which is generally a positive sign for engine health and seals. The MOT history reveals a stable but repetitive maintenance pattern. The vehicle has passed every test, but it consistently flags issues with tyre wear and brake pad thinning. The recurring advisory regarding tyre wear on the edges suggests that the wheel alignment or tracking may have been neglected over several years, which can lead to uneven handling and premature tyre replacement costs. The brake system is a clear area of concern. Advisories for thinning rear brake pads have appeared consistently in the 2024, 2025, and 2026 tests. This indicates that the previous owner may have been reactive rather than proactive with routine maintenance, likely ignoring these warnings until the next annual inspection rather than replacing the components when they first began to wear thin. The overall trend is stable, as the car continues to pass its MOTs without major structural or emissions failures. However, the recurring nature of the advisories suggests a pattern of deferred maintenance.
