2016 Audi Q5 2.0L Diesel · LS16 AFX

The 2016 Audi Q5 demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with no defects recorded in its most recent MOT on 2026-02-01 at 89,333 miles. All prior tests, including the 2024-07-08 inspection at 79,134 miles and the 2023-07-03 test at 72,815 miles, also passed without issues. This consistent record suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a standard meeting legal requirements, with no emerging mechanical or structural concerns. The absence of advisories or failures across five consecutive annual tests indicates a lack of urgent repair needs at the time of each assessment. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 10-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,933 miles annually. The 2021-07-05 test at 46,784 miles showed a 11,180-mile increase from the 2022-07-01 inspection, reflecting a period of higher usage, while subsequent annual intervals maintained steady growth. No significant gaps in testing are evident, with each MOT conducted within 12 months of the previous. The clean record suggests no major mechanical deterioration, though the vehicle’s age and mileage warrant scrutiny of components prone to wear, such as suspension systems and brake assemblies. A buyer should conduct a detailed inspection of the suspension, focusing on bushes and coil springs, which may show wear despite no MOT failures. Brake discs and calipers should be checked for uneven wear or corrosion, as these can develop over time without immediate detection. Structural integrity, particularly in the underbody and chassis, should be assessed for rust or damage, as these issues may not appear in MOT tests. While the vehicle’s history shows no critical faults, its age and mileage necessitate a thorough pre-purchase examination to confirm continued roadworthiness.
