Our Verdict
A consistent performer with a clean MOT
Given the 166,120 miles on the clock, the primary focus should be on the service history. Verify that the timing belt and water pump have been replaced according to Audi's intervals, as these are critical for the 1968cc diesel engine. Check for any evidence of oil leaks or turbocharger wear, which are common considerations for high-mileage executive diesels.
Negotiate the price based on the mileage, which is well above the average for this model. Ensure that all previous advisories, such as the rear brake pads mentioned in 2025, have been addressed with corresponding invoices.
The 2.0L diesel engine is designed for efficiency, particularly on long motorway journeys, though urban fuel consumption will be higher. Road tax and insurance will fall into standard brackets for a 2015 executive saloon, but premiums may vary based on the driver's profile.
Maintenance costs are likely to be higher than average for this age of vehicle due to the high mileage. Expect increased expenditure on wear-and-tear items such as suspension components and braking systems as the vehicle ages beyond 160,000 miles.
Inspect the rear braking system carefully, as the August 2025 MOT recorded that the central rear inner brake pads were wearing thin. Check the headlamps and suspension arms for wear or damage, as these are identified as top failure reasons across the wider A6 model aggregate data.
Verify the condition of the tyres and ensure the adult seatbelts are fully operational; a 2024 MOT record noted a child seat was preventing a full inspection of the belt, so this should be manually checked during a viewing.
This white 2015 Audi A6 has covered 166,120 miles, which is significantly higher than the model average. Despite the high usage, it has passed its last five MOT tests, including the most recent check on 1st September 2026. The history is relatively clean, with only minor advisories regarding brake wear and a child seat obstructing a belt inspection.
The A6 has a respectable 85.2% average MOT pass rate across 143,641 analysed vehicles, with common issues typically involving headlamps and suspension arms.
