2021 Audi S5 Vorsprung TDI Mhev Quat A 3.0L Diesel · X11 EPA

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a clean MOT record across the last three years. The most recent test conducted in March 2026 at 63,771 miles passed with no recorded defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the previous owners have proactively addressed mechanical and safety requirements before they could trigger a failure during DVSA inspections. The mileage accumulation is consistent and predictable, averaging approximately 13,000 miles per annum. Between the March 2024 test at 36,622 miles and the March 2025 test at 49,625 miles, the car covered 13,003 miles, followed by another 14,146 miles leading into the 2026 inspection. This regular usage pattern suggests frequent driving rather than long periods of standing, which generally benefits the engine's health and prevents the issues often associated with stationary vehicles. While the MOT history shows no recurring faults, the physical inspection should focus on components subject to high-mileage wear. A buyer should examine the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of fatigue, as these often degrade around the 60,000-mile mark. Given the performance nature of the S5, checking the brake discs for uneven wear and the calipers for binding is essential to ensure the braking system matches the vehicle's power output.
