2017 Audi Q2 1.6L Diesel · CU17 YPV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive upkeep regarding consumable items. While the car maintained a clean record between 2022 and 2024, the most recent test on November 11,2025 at 86,178 miles revealed multiple advisories. This indicates a recent lapse in proactive inspection of tyres and safety equipment following a period of no recorded defects. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,500 miles per year. There is a notable increase in usage between January 2024 (72,798 miles) and November 2025 (86,178 miles), where the car covered over 13,000 miles in under twenty months. This accelerated use likely correlates with the wear observed in the 2025 MOT results, as the higher frequency of driving places greater demand on the tyre life and accelerates the degradation of rubber components. A buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of the tyres, as the 2025 test flagged all four corners for being near the legal limit or showing signs of perishing. The uneven wear on the front tyres specifically suggests a potential alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that require immediate diagnostic attention. Additionally, the frayed webbing on the offside front seat belt is a safety concern that would likely fail a future test and should be replaced to ensure passenger security. The history shows no structural corrosion or mechanical failures in the previous years, suggesting the chassis and drivetrain remain sound. However, the transition from a clean record to a multi-fault advisory report suggests the owner may only be addressing issues when they become apparent. A thorough check of the brake discs for thinning and the suspension system integrity is advised to ensure the recent spike in mileage has not caused hidden wear beyond the visible tyres.
