2022 Audi Q2 1.5L Petrol · GL22 SWN

The 2022 Audi Q2 presents a stable and largely clean roadworthiness profile, with its most recent MOT conducted on 22 May 2026 at 20,239 miles resulting in a pass. The only defect recorded was a damaged central front upper windscreen, which the tester noted did not adversely affect the driver's line of sight under item 3.2 (a) (i). This is a minor cosmetic and visibility advisory rather than a structural or mechanical failure, and the overall trend across the two available tests shows no recurring or worsening mechanical faults. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a vehicle approaching four years of age. Between the 3 June 2025 test at 17,545 miles and the 22 May 2026 test at 20,239 miles, the vehicle covered just 2,694 miles over approximately eleven months. That equates to roughly 2,910 miles in a full twelve-month window, well below the typical annual average of around 5,060 miles implied by the total recorded distance. Such low usage raises the possibility of extended periods of standing, which can lead to flat-spotted tyres, brake surface corrosion, and dried-out rubber seals, even if the odometer reading remains modest. The MOT record itself is sparse, with only two entries and no mechanical advisories, meaning there is no documented evidence of suspension wear, brake deterioration, exhaust faults, or structural corrosion. The absence of recurring defects is encouraging, but the limited test history means a buyer cannot rely on the MOT alone to confirm the condition of consumable components. A physical inspection should focus on the condition of the tyre sidewalls and tread for age-related cracking, the brake discs and pads for surface corrosion from standing periods, and the suspension bushes and dampers for any deterioration that low-mileage use might mask. The windscreen damage noted in the most recent test should also be examined to confirm it has not progressed and remains outside the swept area of the driver's primary field of vision.
