2012 Audi A6 3.0L Diesel · RF62 RGV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by three consecutive clean passes following a minor setback. The most recent inspection conducted in September 2025 at 134,787 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety standards. While a single failure occurred in September 2023, the vehicle has maintained a clean record for several years, suggesting that the previous owners were proactive in addressing mechanical issues before the annual testing deadline. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,600 miles per annum. Between the September 2022 test at 96,607 miles and the 2025 test at 134,787 miles, the car covered 38,180 miles. This steady accumulation indicates regular use rather than long periods of stagnation, which often leads to perished rubber components or fluid degradation. The interval between tests remains consistent at roughly one-year intervals, reflecting a routine approach to the vehicle's legal maintenance. Despite the recent clean MOT results, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on high-wear components typical for an Audi A6 of this age and mileage. The record does not list recurring advisories for suspension bushes or brake corrosion, but the buyer should check the front control arms and shock absorbers for signs of premature wear. Given the 134,000-mile mark, a thorough check of oil leaks and the condition of the rubber brake lines is essential, as the MOT test does not detect slow fluid leaks or minor engine mechanical failures that dictate the long-term reliability of the drivetrain.
