2016 Audi Q2 1.4L Petrol · RA66 EUF

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift from clean passes to reactive repairs. While the car passed its 2023 and 2024 tests without defects, the most recent inspection in December 2025 at 95,794 miles introduced multiple advisories regarding pitted and scored brake discs and tyres reaching the legal tread limit. This indicates that basic consumable maintenance has recently been neglected until the MOT testing threshold. The mileage pattern is consistent with a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,600 miles per year. There is a significant jump of 12,728 miles recorded between December 2024 and December 2025, which accounts for the increased wear noted in the latest test. This spike in annual usage often accelerates components faster. The December 2023 failure at 63,639 miles was a minor issue involving a bulb and a non-structural windscreen crack, which was rectified quickly to achieve a passing grade. A buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of the braking system, as the recorded pitting and scoring on the nearside rear and offside front discs suggest corrosion-related wear or heavy use. The advisories for edge-worn tyres also point toward potential alignment issues or worn suspension bushes that require immediate checking. Given the mileage is approaching 100,000 miles, the drivetrain and suspension components should be scrutinized for leaks or play to ensure no deeper mechanical degradation that has not yet been flagged by the MOT tester.
