2015 Audi A5 2.0L Diesel · TK14 ENG

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent MOT history. The most recent test conducted in July 2025 at 66,614 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum legal safety standards. While a single failure occurred in May 2024, the immediate rectification and subsequent clean passes suggest that the owner is proactive in addressing identified faults rather than allowing them to persist. The mileage pattern remains consistent with low-average annual usage, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per year over its eleven-year lifespan. Between March 2022 at 27,610 miles and March 2023 at 40,125 miles, the vehicle covered 12,515 miles, showing a period of higher activity compared to the earlier years. However, the rate has slowed significantly since the 2024 test. This low-mileage profile generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it increases the risk of degradation in rubber components and seals due to age alone. Despite the clean-record trend, a buyer should investigate the specific cause of the May 2024 failure at 56,501 miles to ensure the repair was comprehensive rather than a temporary fix. Given the age of the vehicle, a physical inspection should focus on the condition of suspension bushes and control arm bushings, which can crack and perish regardless of low mileage. Checking the brake discs for surface pitting or caliper binding is also essential, as low-mileage cars often suffer from rust on the braking system if left stationary for extended periods.
