2022 Audi Q2 1.0L Petrol · SA22 OTX

The 2022 Audi Q2 presents a stable and largely uncomplicated roadworthiness profile based on the available DVSA MOT records. The most recent test, conducted on 16 October 2025 at 17,738 miles, resulted in a straightforward pass with only a minor advisory. The sole flag noted was tyre wear, specifically both front tyres worn close to the legal limit at 2.9mm and exhibiting edge wear. This indicates a resolving trend of general mechanical soundness, though it highlights a specific area of deferred consumable maintenance that a buyer must address immediately. The vehicle's mileage pattern is notably low for its age, accumulating just 17,738 miles over approximately four years, averaging roughly 4,434 miles annually. The record shows a gap of over a year between the November 2024 test at 12,627 miles and the October 2025 test, during which the vehicle covered 5,111 miles. This suggests a period of more regular use following a potential period of lighter activity or standing. The sparse but clean record, with only two entries, implies a short ownership history and no significant mechanical failures, though the limited data requires a thorough in-person inspection to confirm long-term care. A buyer's physical inspection must prioritise the front axle components. The advisory for edge wear on both front tyres points directly to potential alignment issues or worn suspension bushes and tracking geometry. Have a technician inspect the inner and outer sidewalls closely, and check the condition of the front suspension lower arms and anti-roll bar links. The near-limit tread depth at 2.9mm means replacement is imminent before the next MOT, so factor the cost of a pair of premium-grade tyres into any purchase negotiation. Beyond the tyres, the October 2025 pass at 17,738 miles is the only recent benchmark. The low mileage and clean pass suggest the brake discs, pads, and exhaust system are likely in good order with minimal corrosion. However, verify the brake calipers for any signs of binding and check the underside for surface rust on suspension components, which can develop on vehicles used for short journeys. Confirm the operation of all electronic systems, including the parking brake and infotainment, as these are common failure points on modern Audis that may not appear on a basic MOT.
