2015 Audi A8 4.0L Petrol · TA15 DAS

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in September 2025 at 78,286 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though a recent failure just three days prior to that test indicates a lapse in pre-inspection preparation. The tester flagged a faulty windscreen washer and both rear tyres worn to the legal limit, which were rectified to achieve the pass. Before this incident, the vehicle maintained a clean record for several consecutive years. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eleven-year-old luxury saloon, averaging approximately 7,100 miles per annum. There is a notable gap of 10,000 miles between August 2020 and August 2021, which represents a period of significantly higher usage. Since then, the vehicle has returned to a more typical, steady rate of roughly 7,000 miles annually. This relatively low annual mileage suggests the mechanical components have not faced extreme stress, but it increases the likelihood of rubber components degrading due to age. A buyer should specifically inspect the alignment and suspension, as the record shows recurring issues with tyres worn on edges in 2018, 2021, and 2025. This repeated pattern suggests a persistent geometry issue or worn suspension bushes that have not been fully addressed. Additionally, the 2021 failure for thin rear brake pads indicates that while the braking system is functional, the previous owner operated on long service intervals. Given the age of this Audi A8, a thorough check of chassis corrosion and the integrity of the air suspension components is essential, as low mileage does not protect against structural or age-related degradation.
