Our Verdict
This is a reasonably sound buy for a 2018 Audi A6, with a mostly clean MOT record and sensible mileage for its age. The only caution is a failed MOT in March 2026 that was immediately re-tested and passed with no defects logged, suggesting a minor administrative or non-recorded issue rather than a serious fault.
When viewing this car, ask the seller for clarity on the March 2026 MOT failure, as the record shows no defects but a fail followed by a pass at nearly identical mileage (61,586 to 61,592). This may have been a documentation error, late rectification, or system anomaly, so confirming with the testing garage or paperwork is wise before purchase. Negotiate on the basis that the car is an 8-year-old premium saloon with average mileage, and ensure a full service history is present to support the clean MOT record.
As a 1798cc petrol Audi A6, expect moderate fuel economy for a large saloon, with real-world figures likely in the low 30s to early 40s mpg depending on use. Road tax for a 2018 petrol model of this size will typically fall into a higher band, and insurance groups for the A6 are usually mid-to-high, reflecting its premium status and repair costs. Estimated annual running costs including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance are around £1,400-£1,800, though this varies with mileage and location.
Inspect the car in person for any signs of the issue behind the 2026-03-06 MOT failure, even though no defects were recorded; check lighting, tyres, brakes, and emissions visually as these are common test points. Given the 1.8 petrol engine, listen for unusual noises from the turbo and check for smooth gear changes if automatic. Verify the bodywork on this black example for stone chips and paint swirls, and confirm the mileage progression is consistent across the 2022 (32,407), 2024 (41,740), 2025 (52,641), and 2026 (61,592) tests.
The vehicle is a black 2018 Audi A6 1.8 litre petrol first registered in June 2018, with a current recorded mileage of 61,592 miles from its March 2026 test. MOT history shows passes in 2022, 2024, and 2025 with no defects, and a 2026 failure with no defects listed followed by a pass days later. No aggregate model reliability data is available, so assessment is based purely on this car's individual history.
No aggregate MOT reliability data is available for the Audi A6, so this assessment relies solely on the individual vehicle's test history.
