The Audi A1 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent passed MOT on 27 May 2025 at 87,652 miles recording no defects. The test history shows no advisories or mechanical faults across the available entries. A failed test logged on the same date at identical mileage but with no defects recorded points to an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical concern. Mileage progression sits close to typical use for a 2014 vehicle. The record moves from 65,497 miles at the August 2022 test to 74,309 miles in January 2024, then jumps to 85,536 miles by February 2025 and 87,652 miles by May 2025. Annual averages hold near 7,300 miles. A notable gap exists between August 2022 and January 2024 where no interim test appears, though the 8,812-mile rise over that span remains modest. The clean sheet across all entries suggests the previous keeper kept basic consumables and structure within test limits. Given the absence of flagged wear on brake discs, suspension bushes, coil springs, or corrosion, no recurring fault pattern emerges from the data. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underbody structural integrity and suspension components, as MOT passes with no advisories do not capture incipient bush fatigue or surface rust outside failure thresholds. The duplicated 27 May 2025 entry warrants a check of the V5C and DVSA portal to confirm the live certificate status. The low defect history implies reasonable upkeep rather than deferred maintenance. Verify service records alongside the mileage to confirm cambelt and fluid intervals were met, since the MOT dataset alone cannot evidence drivetrain care.
