2011 Audi A6 2.0L Diesel · RO11 EEW

The roadworthiness status of this Audi A6 is highly encouraging, demonstrating a stable and recently impeccable maintenance trend. In the February 2026 test at 129,555 miles, the vehicle passed with zero defects recorded, a clean bill of health it has maintained since March 2023. The exhaust corrosion and lighting faults flagged in 2022 and 2023 have not recurred, indicating that the previous owner addressed these issues effectively rather than neglecting them. This pattern suggests diligent upkeep rather than reactive repairs. The mileage pattern reflects consistent, typical use for a vehicle of this age, averaging roughly 8,600 miles annually. Looking at the chronological data, the annual distance covered has remained steady, accumulating 6,154 miles between March 2022 and March 2023, 6,838 miles through March 2024, and peaking at 10,413 miles in the year leading to February 2025. The most recent period saw a return to a more moderate 7,098 miles. There are no alarming gaps or sudden drops in the odometer readings that would suggest long periods of standing or severe neglect. Despite the clean MOT record, a physical inspection should focus on the components that historically triggered advisories. The tester flagged a corroded and split exhaust sleeve clamp in March 2023 at 105,206 miles, meaning the entire exhaust system requires close scrutiny for rust and structural integrity, particularly around joints and mounting points. A vehicle approaching 130,000 miles will inevitably wear suspension bushes, coil springs, and drivetrain components. A prospective buyer must check for uneven tyre wear indicating tracking issues or binding calipers, and thoroughly inspect the undercarriage for corrosion beyond the exhaust system. The rear lighting circuit also warrants a quick function test, given the past registration plate lamp failure, to ensure no wiring degradation persists.
