2013 Audi A1 1.4L Petrol · DX63 DZW

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a reactive service pattern rather than proactive care. While the most recent test in February 2026 at 84,544 miles passed, the tester flagged all four tyres as being near the legal limit with uneven edge wear. This indicates a recurring trend where the owner only addresses components once they reach the MOT failure threshold, as evidenced by the multiple failures regarding tyre tread depth in previous years. At 13 years old, the car has covered an average of 6,500 miles per year, which is consistent with typical low-mileage usage. The data shows a significant spike in activity of 13,126 miles between February 2024 and February 2025, followed by another 11,225 miles in the final year. This recent acceleration in mileage suggests the vehicle is being used more frequently now than it was in previous years, which will likely lead to accelerated wear on rubber-based components and braking systems not fully detailed in the records. A buyer must inspect the suspension and alignment geometry due to the repeated reports of uneven tyre edge wear across multiple tests. The offside rear brake disc was noted as pitted and scored in early 2025, suggesting potential caliper binding or a long period of inactivity that allowed surface corrosion to develop. Given the failure for exposed cords on a tyre in 2024, a thorough inspection of the current tyres for sidewall damage and consistent wear patterns is essential to ensure the owner has not neglected basic safety again.
