2018 Audi A1 1.0L Petrol · CU68 VOM

The 2018 Audi A1 presents a stable and exemplary maintenance trend, with its most recent MOT completed on 1 July 2025 at 36,281 miles, just over a year ago from today. The tester recorded zero defects, indicating the vehicle met all required safety and environmental standards without any advisories at that time. This unblemished record across all five tests demonstrates consistent mechanical integrity and diligent upkeep by the previous keeper. The mileage accumulation aligns with light usage, averaging roughly 4,535 miles per year. Between the September 2021 test at 11,628 miles and the September 2022 test at 12,700 miles, the vehicle covered just 1,072 miles, suggesting a period of prolonged standing or very short local journeys. Usage increased notably thereafter, with 7,756 miles covered between July 2023 at 20,971 miles and July 2024 at 28,727 miles, followed by 7,554 miles over the subsequent twelve months to July 2025. The data is entirely clean, showing no anomalies or rapid spikes in usage. Despite the flawless MOT history, the low annual mileage and the 1,072-mile gap between 2021 and 2022 warrant a focused physical inspection. Short trips and prolonged standing can cause specific issues that MOTs do not always capture. A buyer should inspect the condition of the brake discs for surface corrosion from standing, check the tyres for flat-spotting or perishing due to age rather than wear, and examine the suspension bushes for deterioration. Verifying the exhaust emissions under cold start conditions and checking for any fluid leaks after the car has stood will confirm whether the light use has caused any latent mechanical issues.
