2006 Audi A6 2.0L Petrol · LM55 OSE

The 2006 Audi A6 presents as roadworthy following a passed MOT on 22 February 2025 at 165,521 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The vehicle cleared every test from 26 January 2022 through to the most recent examination, showing no advisories or defects logged at any stage. A failed test on 19 February 2025 at 165,509 miles recorded no defects, with the car passing three days later, which suggests an administrative or documentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. Annual mileage sits at a typical 8,276 miles per year for a 20-year-old vehicle, with the odometer reading 156,659 miles in January 2022 and rising to 165,521 miles by February 2025. The record shows only 8,862 miles added across that three-year span, with the largest single jump being 6,391 miles between the January 2024 and February 2025 tests. Such low yearly use implies the car spent periods stationary, a pattern that often accelerates rubber perishing and corrosion on unused components despite the clean test sheet. No tester flagged suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity concerns at any point in the supplied history. The absence of advisories across five consecutive tests indicates previous owners kept basic consumables within limits, though the 2025 failure with zero defects points to a non-mechanical rejection worth confirming on the DVLA portal. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of subframe and sill corrosion given the vehicle's age and low-use pattern, and verify the rear brake calipers are free from binding after standing. Check tyre sidewalls for age cracking and test the suspension for worn bushes that a clean MOT may not capture on a brief ramp examination.
