2021 Audi Q2 1.5L Petrol · KU21 TSB

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, with a clean MOT passed on 19 December 2025 at 12,717 miles, showing no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, with no advisories or failures across both tests, indicating consistent mechanical condition and no emerging issues. The recorded mileage of 12,717 over five years equates to an average of just over 2,500 miles annually, which is significantly below typical usage. The gap between the 2024 test at 4,901 miles and the 2025 test at 12,717 miles reveals a jump of 7,816 miles in just under six months, suggesting either a change in usage pattern or a possible discrepancy in recorded mileage. No prior tests exist before 2024, so the early life of the vehicle remains unverified, but the recent spike raises a minor question about odometer accuracy or extended non-use prior to 2024. Despite the clean record, the low annual mileage and sudden mileage increase warrant a physical inspection of components that degrade with time rather than use. Focus on the condition of brake fluid, suspension bushes, and coil springs, as these can harden or corrode during prolonged inactivity. Check the exhaust system for internal rust, especially around the silencer, and verify that the battery and tyres retain flexibility and pressure integrity. The absence of advisories does not eliminate age-related degradation, particularly in a vehicle that may have spent long periods stationary. A buyer should also confirm the service history aligns with the MOT record, as low-mileage vehicles often miss scheduled maintenance. Inspect the engine mounts, drive belts, and brake calipers for signs of seizing or fluid leakage, as these are common in cars with irregular use. The clean MOT is reassuring, but the unusual mileage pattern demands deeper scrutiny of components unaffected by mileage but vulnerable to time and storage conditions.
