Our Verdict
This Audi A8 is a reasonable prospect fo
When inspecting this specific A8, focus heavily on the suspension components. The 2022 MOT failure highlighted issues with both nearside and offside front lower suspension arm pins/bushes. You should check for any unusual knocking or creaking sounds when driving over uneven surfaces.
Additionally, pay close attention to the tyres. The vehicle has a recurring history of tyres being worn close to the legal limit or having edge wear, specifically noted in both 2022 and 2024. Ensure all four tyres have significant tread depth remaining and show even wear across the profile to rule out alignment issues.
As a 2.9L diesel, running costs will be influenced by fuel economy and the high cost of parts for a premium executive vehicle. Expect a moderate-to-high insurance group typical for an Audi A8.
Maintenance costs for this model can be higher than average due to the complexity of the 2967cc engine and advanced suspension systems. While diesel fuel is efficient for motorway cruising, the annual running cost will include higher-than-average servicing requirements for a vehicle of this class.
The MOT history for MA15OGE shows specific weaknesses in tyres and suspension. Inspect the front lower suspension arms and bushes carefully, as these were noted as worn in 2022. Check the front undertray to ensure it is securely fastened, following the 2022 failure for an insecure undertray.
Check the condition of all four tyres for cuts, bulges, or uneven wear patterns. Given the 2024 advisory regarding nearside rear tyre wear on the edge, it is worth checking if the wheel alignment is correct to prevent premature replacement.
This 2015 grey Audi A8 has covered 75,110 miles, which is slightly above the model average of 8,093 miles per year. While the most recent MOT in August 2025 showed no defects, the vehicle has a history of tyre and suspension-related failures. The mileage is consistent with a diesel executive saloon used for longer distances.
Aggregate data for this model shows an 89% MOT pass rate, with common failure points being tyres, headlamps, and suspension arms.
