AUDI A12014 · 1.6L Diesel

This Audi A1 presents as mechanically stable and roadworthy based on the available data. The most recent MOT on 16 February 2026 at 79,289 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes over the last three years, suggesting a vehicle that has been maintained to a standard that avoids recurring mechanical failure. The mileage is typical for a twelve year old vehicle, averaging roughly 6,607 miles per year. There was a notable increase in usage between May 2024 and February 2025, where the odometer rose from 69,795 to 71,803 miles. The most recent interval shows a sharper increase of 7,486 miles over one year. These figures indicate the car is in regular use rather than sitting idle, which generally helps preserve rubber components and prevents battery degradation. The MOT history is unusually clean for a vehicle of this age, with no recorded advisories for brake wear, suspension bushes, or corrosion across multiple years. While the failure on 14 February 2025 was rectified immediately the same day, the record provides no specific technical detail on the fault. This lack of documented wear suggests either a very diligent maintenance regime or a tester who has been lenient with minor consumables. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on areas the MOT often overlooks or that may have developed since February. Check the condition of the brake discs for lip wear and inspect the tyre treads for uneven wear patterns that could indicate alignment issues. Given the age of the vehicle, a manual check for underbody corrosion and the condition of the coil springs is advised to ensure the structural integrity remains sound despite the clean paper trail.
