2016 Audi Q2 1.4L Petrol · OV66 PVD

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward addressing surface corrosion caused by low usage. The most recent test in October 2025 at 34,301 miles passed with an advisory for the front brake disc being pitted and scored. This follows a recurring pattern seen in 2023 and 2021 where pitted brake discs were flagged across multiple axles, indicating that the components are suffering from oxidation rather than excessive mechanical wear. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,430 miles per year. Between October 2020 at 24,817 miles and October 2025 at 34,301 miles, the car covered only 9,484 miles. While this low mileage suggests light strain on drivetrain components, it directly explains the issues noted in the record. The failure in 2024 due to perishing tyres and a cut reaching the cords is a classic symptom of vehicles that sit for long periods without regular movement. A buyer should inspect the tyres thoroughly for sidewall cracking and dry rot, as the 2024 failure proves the rubber compound is beginning to degrade despite low tread depth. The brake system requires close attention; while the discs are not yet structurally compromised, the persistent pitting suggests the calipers may be seizing slightly due to lack of use. You should also check the rubber suspension bushes and boots for cracking, as these low-mileage components often suffer from age-related material fatigue that a standard MOT test only partially addresses.
