2018 Audi A5 3.0L Petrol · RK18 VRV

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy condition, though the maintenance trend shows a slight decline in consumable upkeep. While the most recent test in March 2026 at 51,982 miles resulted in a pass, the tester flagged rear tyres worn close to the legal limit and on the edge. This indicates a return to issues previously seen in February 2022, interrupting a three-year clean record established between 2023 and 2025. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-useage vehicle, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per annum. There is a notable jump of 10,000 miles between February 2022 and February 2023, which accounts for the bulk of the total recorded distance. Since then, the vehicle has seen a more steady rate of roughly 4,000 to 4,500 miles annually. This low mileage suggests the drivetrain and engine components have likely experienced less mechanical stress than high-mileage counterparts of similar age. A buyer should specifically inspect the rear alignment and suspension geometry. The recurring fault of edge wear on the rear tyres in both 2022 and 2026 suggests a persistent issue with worn control arm bushes or incorrect camber settings that has not been professionally rectified. You should also check the brake discs for uneven wear or pitting, as long periods of standing can sometimes lead to surface oxidation failure. Given the low mileage, the structural integrity of the chassis appears sound based on the absence of corrosion-related advisories throughout the history.
