Our Verdict
A solid option for high-mileage drivers, provided you are comfortable with its extensive usage. The recent MOT history is notably clean, showing no recorded defects over the last five years.
Given that this 2.0L diesel has covered over 150,000 miles, your primary focus should be on verifying the service history to ensure oil changes and timing belt intervals have been strictly adhered to. High-mileage Audis often require significant maintenance to keep the diesel engine and complex electronics in order.
When negotiating, use the high mileage as a lever, but do not let it distract you from the fact that the MOT history shows no recorded failures. Ask for evidence of recent major component replacements, such as the timing belt, water pump, or suspension components, as these are common high-mileage requirements for this model.
As a 1968cc diesel, this A6 is designed for efficient long-distance cruising, though fuel costs will depend heavily on your driving style. You should check the specific Euro emissions standard to estimate potential ULEZ or Clean Air Zone charges, which can impact daily costs in many UK cities.
Insurance groups for the Audi A6 vary widely, so obtain a quote based on the specific engine output. Maintenance costs for a vehicle of this age and mileage can be higher than average due to the complexity of German engineering and the wear and tear associated with 156,045 miles of use.
While this specific vehicle has a clean MOT record with no defects, you should remain vigilant regarding common model failure points. The aggregate data for this model indicates that headlamps, tyres, and anti-roll bars are frequent MOT failure reasons; check these components closely during your inspection.
Additionally, inspect the condition of the tyres and brake components, as these are common advisory items that can lead to failures. Given the 156,045 miles recorded, pay close attention to any signs of suspension wear or leaks around the engine bay, even if they have not yet triggered an MOT failure.
This 2013 Audi A6, finished in Grey, has covered 156,045 miles as of its last MOT in January 2026. While the mileage is significantly higher than the model average of 9,177 per year, the vehicle has passed its last five MOT tests without a single recorded defect. This suggests a consistent pattern of passing inspections, though the high mileage remains the primary consideration for any buyer.
Aggregate data for this model shows an 85.1% MOT pass rate, with common failures typically relating to headlamps, tyres, and anti-roll bars.

Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2013 model year cars.
- Coolant Leak in Engine "V"Moderate
The coolant shut-off valve fails, filling the engine "V" between the cylinder banks with coolant, causing a gradual loss that can lead to overheating if not topped up.
- 3.0 TDI Timing Chain RattleSerious
The V6 TDI timing chains sit at the rear of the engine and the hydraulic tensioners can weaken, causing cold-start rattle and potential chain jump if ignored.
- DPF Clogging and Regeneration IssuesModerate
Town-driven 3.0 TDI models block their DPFs, causing warning lights, limp mode and expensive DPF cleaning or replacement.
