2021 Audi A1 1.0L Petrol · DA71 WKC

The Audi A1 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 24 November 2025 at 46,873 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior annual examination on 18 December 2024 at 27,005 miles also passed clean. The failed entry logged on 18 December 2024 at the same mileage and with no defects recorded points to an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault, with the vehicle subsequently passing on the same day. Mileage accumulation has been moderate for a five-year-old vehicle. The record shows 27,005 miles at the December 2024 test and 46,873 miles by November 2025, an increase of roughly 19,868 miles across eleven months. That equates to near double the implied annual average of 9,375 miles, suggesting a period of heavier use in the run-up to the latest test. Prior to that, the car covered only 27,005 miles in its first three years, indicating lighter early running. The supplied history is sparse, with just three entries and no advisories or recorded wear items across any test. Given the absence of flagged defects, the MOT data reveals no recurring suspension, braking, or corrosion concerns. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of consumable items not always captured at test, namely brake disc thickness, tyre tread depth across all axles, and suspension bush condition. The clean record implies previous owners kept the car to a reasonable standard, but the sharp mileage rise after December 2024 warrants checking for drivetrain oil service history and clutch or gearbox wear if manual. No structural or mechanical risks are evidenced by the official record. The same-day fail and pass in December 2024 should be verified with the selling garage to confirm it was clerical, not a concealed rejection.
