2020 Audi A1 1.5L Petrol · J27 CAD

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following its most recent pass in February 2026 at 49,104 miles. However, the maintenance trend shows a clear worsening pattern regarding consumable components. While the car has passed every test, the frequency and severity of advisories related to tyres and brakes have increased annually, suggesting that the previous owner is only addressing faults when they reach the MOT threshold rather than performing proactive preventative maintenance. The mileage pattern is consistent with a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,200 miles per year. There was a significant jump in usage between the February 2023 test at 10,860 miles and the 2024 test at 21,049 miles, representing over 10,000 miles in a single year. Usage has accelerated since, with 28,055 miles covered between 2024 and 2026. This indicates steady, modern use, which explains the accelerated wear observed on the braking system and rubberwork. A buyer must conduct a close physical inspection of the braking system and tyre condition. The February 2026 test flagged thin nearside rear brake pads and a pitted, scored disc, which follows a history of rear tyre wear noted in 2025. The recurring mention of tyres being worn on the edge across multiple axles over three years suggests potential alignment issues or suspension bushing wear that require professional investigation. You should verify the remaining tread depth on all four tyres and check if the rear brakes have been replaced since the last advisory to avoid immediate additional costs.
