2009 Audi A5 2.0L Petrol · WP09 NWD

The vehicle presents as roadworthy following the most recent test on 16 October 2025 at 53,920 miles, where the tester issued a pass with no defects recorded. Maintenance trend stays stable across the recorded history, with only an anomalous failure on 14 October 2025 at identical mileage but no defects logged, rectified by the pass two days later. The absence of advisories or faults across five consecutive tests from October 2022 signals consistent compliance with DVSA standards. The Audi A5, first registered in 2009, shows 53,920 miles on the odometer as of the October 2025 test, equating to roughly 3,172 miles per annum. The records trace a gentle accumulation: 47,984 miles on 6 October 2022, 49,718 by 28 September 2023, 52,681 on 8 October 2024, and 53,920 on 16 October 2025. Such low annual use implies light running. Yearly test spacing with no missed cycles reflects disciplined ownership rather than deferred maintenance. Despite the clean MOT ledger, a 17-year-old vehicle warrants physical scrutiny of age-sensitive components. The tester never flagged suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs or structural corrosion, yet these items degrade with time regardless of mileage. Previous owners clearly kept the car to test standard, but the 2025 fail with no defects recorded hints at possible administrative slippage rather than mechanical neglect. A buyer should still confirm brake caliper operation, exhaust emissions, and underbody integrity in person. The low mileage may also mask prolonged standing periods. Drivetrain seals and tyre sidewalls can suffer from inactivity. Inspect for perishing rubber and fluid contamination before purchase.
