2004 Audi A2 1.4L Petrol · LS54 YXG

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a pattern of reactive repairs rather than proactive care. While the most recent test on 28 May 2026 at 107,128 miles resulted in a pass, it followed an immediate failure for an insecure upper driver door hinge and a persistent oil leak. This oil leak has been a constant feature in every test since at least 2024, indicating a slow drip that the previous owners have chosen not to rectify despite multiple MOT advisories. At 22 years old, the recorded mileage of 107,128 miles is significantly low, averaging approximately 4,870 miles per year. This low usage is consistent across the records, with only 2,364 miles driven between May 2024 and May 2025, and another 2,420 miles in the final year leading up to the latest test. However, such low mileage often leads to the degradation of rubber components and seals due to age, which is supported by the mechanical failures noted in the history. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the braking system and drivetrain. The May 2025 failure highlighted a leaking nearside rear hydraulic brake cylinder and imbalanced brakes across the axle, which suggests potential caliper sticking or perished seals. The offside front drive shaft boot was flagged as severely deteriorated in 2024 and split by 2025; the buyer should check the replacement for grease leakage and damage. Additionally, the recurring inner tread wear noted in May 2024 indicates a persistent alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that remains unaddressed.
