2022 Audi Q4 E-Tron Edition 1 40 Electric · MC71 OES

The vehicle’s most recent MOT test, conducted on 24 July 2025 at 26,071 miles, confirms it remains roadworthy with no defects recorded. This clean history extends back to the previous test on 16 December 2024 at 21,213 miles, where it also passed without fail. The absence of advisories or recurring faults suggests consistent compliance with MOT standards, though the sparse record does not reveal deeper maintenance patterns beyond what the test covers. The latest test occurred just over a year ago, which is within the standard 12-month MOT cycle, though the vehicle’s age and mileage now place it at the upper limit of typical annual testing intervals. The recorded mileage of 26,071 miles over four years—approximately 6,518 miles annually—falls within the expected range for a vehicle of this age and model. There are no significant gaps or abrupt spikes in usage, as the most recent test aligns closely with the previous one, with only 4,858 miles accumulated between December 2024 and July 2025. This steady progression suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to extreme conditions or prolonged neglect, though the low mileage could also imply periods of limited use or storage. Without service history beyond the MOT, there is no evidence of deferred maintenance or accelerated wear, but the lack of pre-MOT servicing records means potential hidden issues cannot be ruled out. Given the clean MOT record, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of high-wear components that are not routinely tested. The absence of faults does not preclude degradation in suspension elements such as coil springs, bushes, or dampers, particularly in an electric vehicle where weight distribution and load-bearing stresses may differ. Brake systems, including calipers, pads, and discs, should be checked for uneven wear or binding, especially if the vehicle has been driven in varied conditions. Additionally, the battery and cooling system—critical for electric vehicles—require scrutiny, as MOT tests do not assess electrical capacity or thermal management. Structural corrosion, particularly around wheel arches, sills, and underbody, should also be examined, as this is not captured in the MOT report.
