2012 Audi A6 2.0L Diesel · RO62 AAZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of MOT passes. The most recent test on 23 January 2026 at 122,804 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failure on the same day at 122,783 miles. This initial failure suggests a minor administrative error or trivial mechanical issue that was immediately rectified before the retest, as the vehicle has maintained a clean record for the preceding three years. The mileage pattern aligns with typical usage for a fourteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,700 miles per year. Between January 2023 at 94,513 miles and January 2025 at 111,958 miles, the car covered 17,445 miles, showing a steady rate of use. The jump of 10,846 miles between the 2025 and 2026 tests maintains this consistent trend, indicating the vehicle is driven regularly which is generally beneficial for maintaining seals and preventing components from seizing during long periods of standing. Because the MOT record shows no recurring advisories for structural corrosion, leaking components, or suspension wear, a physical inspection should focus on high-mileage items common to this model. A buyer should verify the condition of the front control arm bushes and coil springs, as these often degrade at this mileage despite clean tests. Given the age of the Audi, checking for brake fluid leaks and the thickness of the brake discs is essential to ensure the clean MOT history reflects the actual mechanical state of the drivetrain.
