2013 Audi A1 1.6L Diesel · CP13 OGO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the most recent inspection history indicates a significant mechanical failure requiring immediate attention. While the car passed its MOT on 24 July 2025 at 128,384 miles, it had failed just six days prior. The tester identified a fuel system component leaking excessively, which presented a genuine fire risk and prevented the completion of emissions testing. This failure suggests a critical repair was addressed immediately before the passing result, breaking a period of three years with clean records. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per annum. Between July 2022 and July 2025, the car covered 8,052 miles, showing a steady usage profile that matches its total of 128,384 miles. This consistent accumulation suggests regular road use rather than long periods of stagnation, which is generally beneficial for the condition of rubber seals, hoses, and braking components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the fuel system to ensure the leak reported in July 2025 was professionally rectified and that no secondary leaks exist. The record also notes a recurring nearside rear tyre that was worn on the edge and near the legal limit during the 2025 tests. This pattern often indicates an alignment issue or a worn suspension bush which should be verified to prevent premature wear on new rubber. Since no structural corrosion or brake defects were flagged in the previous years, the chassis integrity appears stable, though the high mileage still warrants a close check of the drivetrain and shock absorbers.
