2017 Audi A1 Sport Tfsi 1.0L Petrol · DX17 MYV

The overall roadworthiness of the 2017 AUDI A1 is currently unacceptable for safe driving, with the most recent MOT test on 2026-03-13 failing at 57,262 miles. This indicates a critical deterioration in mechanical condition, specifically concerning the suspension and braking systems, which are the primary components flagged as worn in the MOT record. The maintenance trend is worsening , evidenced by the failure of the MOT on 2025-02-27 at 49,107 miles. While the previous two tests (March 2026 and March 2025) passed, the gap between the most recent and the second-to-last test suggests that the vehicle has not undergone adequate servicing since the 2025-02-27 session. This pattern of failure points to a lack of basic upkeep, where the buyer may have neglected routine checks for suspension bushings and brake calipers. Based on the history, the buyer should inspect the vehicle for structural integrity and brake disc wear . The MOT history explicitly flags offside front brake disc wear, which is a serious indication of potential brake failure risks. Furthermore, the suspension components have been identified as worn, necessitating a physical inspection of the chassis and suspension linkage to rule out hidden damage. Given the age of the vehicle (approx. 9 years) and the lack of recent maintenance, a thorough physical examination is required to determine if the drivetrain or suspension has become structurally compromised.
