2016 Audi A5 3.0L Diesel · MX66 VVM

This Audi A5 presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 14 February 2026 at 112,717 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to early 2023, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard and kept in a roadworthy state without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the age of the vehicle, averaging roughly 11,272 miles per year. The distance covered between the March 2024 test at 93,004 miles and the March 2025 test at 102,862 miles shows a steady usage pattern of nearly 10,000 miles annually. There are no erratic jumps or long periods of inactivity that would suggest neglect or hidden deterioration. The MOT record is unusually clean for a ten year old vehicle, with no advisories for brake disc wear, suspension bushes, or corrosion across four years of testing. The single failure on 13 March 2023 at 81,705 miles was resolved on the same day, though the record does not specify the defect. This suggests the previous owner addressed issues promptly. A physical inspection should focus on high-wear consumables that do not always trigger MOT failures until they reach a critical limit. Check the condition of the tyre treads and the depth of the brake pads, as the lack of advisories suggests these may be due for replacement soon. Inspect the underside for any early signs of surface corrosion and verify the service history to ensure the engine oil and cambelt intervals align with the 112,717 mile odometer reading.
