2018 Audi A1 1.0L Petrol · DA18 HDD

The Audi A1 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 15 November 2025 at 34,460 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of clean results across the available history. Annual mileage sits well below typical averages for an eight-year-old car. The record shows 23,232 miles at the November 2022 test, rising to 26,855 by November 2023, 30,417 by November 2024, and 34,460 by November 2025. That equates to roughly 3,200 to 4,000 miles added each year, confirming light use with no abrupt accumulation or standing gaps. The DVSA data is sparse but consistently clean, with only a duplicate November 2022 entry showing a fail and pass on the same day at identical mileage and no defects logged, likely an administrative re-test rather than a genuine fault. No advisories or defects appear against suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, calipers, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion at any point. The absence of flagged wear suggests previous owners kept basic consumables and mechanical items within tolerance, though low mileage standing can mask perished rubber and seized linkages not caught in a pass. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underbody structural integrity and brake caliper freedom, since the MOT only samples visible condition on the day. Verify tyre sidewall age and check for fluid leaks around suspension mounts, as eight years of low use can hide degradation that a clean test certificate will not reveal.
