2018 Audi Q5 2.0L Petrol · SD18 ABF

The 2018 Audi Q5 demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with all five MOT tests from 2022 to 2026 recording no defects. The most recent test on 2026-02-12 at 25,289 miles confirmed compliance, aligning with the vehicle’s low annual mileage of approximately 3,161 miles. No recurring issues or escalating faults are evident in the history, suggesting consistent maintenance and minimal mechanical stress. The absence of advisories or failures indicates the vehicle has been well-preserved within its usage profile. The mileage progression shows a steady accumulation, with annual checks spaced one year apart. From 13,258 miles in 2022 to 25,289 miles in 2026, the car has experienced gradual wear, typical for a vehicle with low annual usage. Notably, the 2023-03-22 test at 16,377 miles and the 2024-02-22 test at 19,871 miles reveal a slight acceleration in mileage, but no irregularities in the testing record. The clean history lacks gaps or abrupt changes, reinforcing the impression of controlled usage and regular inspections. A buyer should verify the condition of suspension components, as low mileage can sometimes mask wear in bushings or coil springs due to infrequent use. The absence of brake-related defects in the record is reassuring, but a physical inspection of brake discs and calipers is recommended to confirm no hidden corrosion or binding. Additionally, check for signs of structural rust, particularly in areas prone to moisture, and ensure the battery and fluid levels are within acceptable ranges, as prolonged inactivity may affect these systems.
