AUDI A12022 · 1.5L PETROL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a trend of deferred consumable replacement. While the most recent test in February 2026 at 27,380 miles passed, the tester flagged both front and rear brake pads as wearing thin. This suggests that the previous owner operated components until they reached the end of their functional life or triggered an MOT advisory point, rather than following a proactive service schedule. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-useage urban vehicle, averaging approximately 6,845 miles per year. Between the January 2025 test at 20,864 miles and the February 2026 test at 27,380 miles, the car covered 6,516 miles. This steady accumulation reflects light annual usage, which explains why the vehicle remains relatively low-mile despite the mechanical wear noted on the braking system. A buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of the braking system and front suspension geometry. The 2025 advisory noted that both front tyres were worn close to the legal limit and specifically on the edge, which often points to an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. You must check for uneven tread wear on the current tyres and inspect the brake discs for scoring or heat glazing, as the thin pads flagged previously may have compromised the rotors. Given the history of deferred maintenance, verifying the condition of wipers and fluid levels is also essential to ensure no hidden issues have been overlooked.
