2016 Audi A1 1.6L Diesel · GL16 ACV

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness profile with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 6 February 2026 at 75,542 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of passing tests since early 2023, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that prevents recurring mechanical or structural issues. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with typical usage for a ten-year-old vehicle. Between the January 2023 test at 45,615 miles and the February 2025 test at 64,360 miles, the car covered approximately 18,745 miles over two years. The recent jump from 64,360 miles in early 2025 to 75,542 miles in February 2026 shows an average annual usage of roughly 11,000 miles, which aligns well with the overall lifetime average of 7,554 miles per year. This steady usage pattern suggests the car has not been subject to extreme long-distance motorway commuting or, conversely, long periods of stationary neglect. While the MOT history is remarkably clean, the single failure recorded on 2 February 2024 at 55,597 miles indicates a minor setback that was resolved immediately. Because the vehicle has passed all subsequent tests without advisories, there is no evidence of worsening corrosion, suspension wear, or brake issues. A physical inspection should focus on verifying the current condition of consumables such as tyre tread depth and wiper blades, which are not captured in MOT data. A buyer should also check the service history to complement this digital record. Although the MOT history shows no issues with structural integrity or emissions, ensuring that oil changes and fluid top-ups have been performed regularly will be essential for a high-mileage Audi engine. The lack of advisories regarding brake discs or suspension bushes in the recent years suggests the vehicle has been kept in good mechanical order.
