2011 Audi A1 1.2L Petrol · AD11 AEV

The 2011 Audi A1 presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 10 February 2025 at 77,776 miles, with no defects logged. The maintenance trend is stable across the available record. The vehicle cleared every test from January 2022 through to the 2025 pass, showing no recurring advisories or mechanical faults. A two-day gap in February 2025 saw a failure at 77,676 miles on 8 February followed by a pass at 77,776 miles on 10 February, yet the tester recorded no defects on either entry, suggesting an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a worn component. Annual mileage sits low for a fifteen-year-old car. The record shows 57,692 miles in January 2022, rising to 64,680 by January 2023, 69,204 by January 2024, and 77,776 by February 2025. That equates to roughly 5,185 miles per year, with gentle year-on-year accumulation of about 5,000 to 8,500 miles. No abrupt jumps or dormant gaps appear. The clean sheet across five years implies the previous keeper kept basic statutory testing current, though the sparse entries leave consumable condition between tests unverified. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and likely periods of standing. Low use can allow corrosion to develop on structural members and brake calipers without MOT detection in a zero-advisory year. The February 2025 fail with no listed defect warrants a check of the DVSA refusal reason, as it may concern documentation or a minor test anomaly rather than roadworthiness. Verify the actual tyre tread, wiper operation, and exhaust emissions in person. The history shows no flagged wear, but fifteen years of age means rubber and fluid degradation outpace the odometer. Treat the clean MOT trail as a positive baseline, not a substitute for a physical appraisal.
