Our Verdict

This 2007 Audi Q7 in blue offers an impressively clean recent MOT history with four consecutive clear passes up to 114,389 miles. It represents a solid, well-maintained luxury diesel SUV option for the right buyer, provided running costs and maintenance history are carefully factored in.

When inspecting this 2007 Audi Q7, check the service book rigorously to ensure the 2967.0cc diesel engine has received frequent oil changes, as timing chain health and carbon buildup can be concerns on higher-mileage V6 diesels of this era. Verify the operation of all cabin electronics, parking sensors, and air suspension (if fitted), since electrical gremlins can be costly to diagnose and repair on early-generation luxury SUVs.

Negotiation should hinge on verifying the completeness of the vehicle's history file alongside the clean MOT record. While the MOT history shows no advisory notes across its last several tests at 103,652, 107,440, 111,196, and 114,389 miles, a physical inspection underneath the blue bodywork is essential to check for worn suspension bushes, brake wear, and any signs of fluid leaks around the 3.0-litre drivetrain.

Running a large 2007 luxury diesel SUV like the Audi Q7 involves higher-than-average overheads. The 2967.0cc engine sits in a higher UK vehicle excise duty (road tax) band due to its age and emissions profile, and fuel economy will reflect its substantial heft, particularly on urban runs.

Insurance group ratings for this model will be towards the upper end, and replacement tyres, brake discs, and pads for a vehicle of this size are considerably more expensive than for a standard family hatchback. Budget carefully for routine preventative maintenance to keep this large diesel reliable over the long term.

Pay close attention to suspension components, braking systems, and steering joints, as the weight of the Q7 places heavy demands on these parts despite the recent fault-free MOT tests in 2022, 2023, and 2025. Inspect the tyres for even wear and check the alloy wheels for curbing or corrosion.

Check the engine bay for any oil or coolant leaks around the 2967.0cc power unit, and ensure the automatic gearbox shifts smoothly through all gears without hesitation. Additionally, test all windows, climate control zones, and the tailgate mechanism to ensure every electrical feature functions correctly.

First registered in January 2007 with a 2967.0cc diesel engine, this blue Audi Q7 has covered 114,389 miles as of its November 2025 MOT test. The vehicle's recent test record is remarkably clean, showing standard passes in 2022, 2023, and 2025, alongside a same-day pass following a procedural fail in late 2024. Its current recorded mileage averages out to a modest annual rate given its 2007 vintage, making it an appealing prospect for someone seeking a spacious, high-riding German tourer.

The Audi Q7 model demonstrates solid durability when properly maintained, supported here by an 80.0% average MOT pass rate across analysed data.
