AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle is currently roadworthy; the most recent MOT on 27 April 2026 recorded a pass at 39,088 miles with no defects, confirming a stable maintenance pattern over the last three years. The earlier tests in June 2025 (38,820 miles) and September 2024 (37,080 miles) also returned passes, indicating no recurring faults and a consistent state of repair. Mileage progression shows a low annual average of roughly 2,800 miles, which is typical for a lightly used 14‑year‑old Audi A1. The jump from 33,968 miles in October 2023 to 37,080 miles in September 2024 added about 3,100 miles in roughly eleven months, while the increase to 38,820 miles in June 2025 added only 1,740 miles over nine months. The final rise to 39,088 miles in April 2026 amounted to just 268 miles over ten months, suggesting extended periods of inactivity. No defects were logged at any test, so the MOT record itself is clean. A buyer should still inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or hardening, the brake discs and calipers for corrosion or uneven wear, and the tyres for uneven tread and proper pressure, as low‑mileage vehicles can develop stagnation issues. Check the underbody and exhaust for rust, the battery terminals for corrosion, and all fluids for degradation, given the age and possible long storage spells. A recent service history would also be valuable to confirm that routine maintenance was performed outside the MOT checks.
