2020 Audi RS 6 V-Sprung Tfsi Mhev Quat A 4.0L Petrol · RO70 AAY

The most recent MOT test conducted on 18 August 2025 resulted in a clean pass with no recorded defects. Reviewing the testing history from 2023 through 2025, the vehicle demonstrates a highly stable and consistent maintenance profile, as no failures or advisories have been noted in any of the recorded inspections. This lack of recorded issues suggests that the vehicle has been well-maintained or has not been subjected to the typical mechanical stressors that lead to MOT failures, such as exhaust emissions issues, lighting failures, or suspension degradation. The recorded mileage of 28,723 miles over a six-year period represents an average annual usage of approximately 4,787 miles. This is considered very low mileage for a vehicle of this age and performance specification. While lower mileage generally implies less wear on the internal combustion engine, turbochargers, and drivetrain components, it can also indicate that the vehicle has spent significant periods stationary. For a high-performance Audi RS 6, this usage pattern requires a specific inspection approach, as the risks shift from mechanical wear to age-related degradation and the effects of long-term standing. Because the MOT record is entirely clean, your physical inspection should focus on components that degrade due to time rather than distance. Closely examine the tyres for any signs of perishing, sidewall cracking, or dry rot, which can occur even if the tread depth remains high. Inspect the brake discs for heavy surface corrosion or pitting, and during the test drive, listen for any signs of binding calipers or uneven braking, which can result from components not being regularly cycled. It is also essential to verify the service history to ensure that time-based fluid changes for engine oil, brake fluid, and coolant have been carried out according to the manufacturer's intervals, as these fluids can degrade chemically even if the mileage is low. Additionally, pay attention to the condition of the rubber suspension bushes and coil springs, as these can harden or crack when a vehicle is infrequently driven. Given the mild-hybrid electric vehicle architecture, you should also ensure the 12V battery is in good health, as low-usage vehicles are prone to battery discharge and capacity loss. Finally, check the underside of the vehicle for any evidence of fluid weeping from seals or gaskets, which can sometimes occur due to seal shrinkage during periods of inactivity. A thorough review of the service book is necessary to confirm that the vehicle has received regular, scheduled maintenance despite the low annual mileage.
