2012 Audi A1 1.4L Petrol · LD12 AEV

This 2012 Audi A1 presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean bill of health in its most recent inspection. The vehicle passed its last MOT on 28 July 2025 at 92,428 miles with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to July 2023, suggesting the car has been kept in a roadworthy condition without any recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is typical for a fourteen year old vehicle, averaging roughly 6,602 miles per year. The distance covered between the July 2023 test at 85,759 miles and the July 2025 test at 92,428 miles shows a steady usage pattern of approximately 3,334 miles per annum over the last two years. There are no erratic jumps in mileage that would suggest periods of prolonged standing or sudden heavy commercial use. The absence of advisories across multiple years is unusual for a vehicle of this age and suggests a proactive approach to maintenance. While the record shows two failures in 2024 and 2025, these were resolved on the same day as the passes, which often indicates minor administrative errors or very simple fixes rather than systemic mechanical collapse. A physical inspection should still focus on age-related wear that MOT testers may overlook if it does not meet a failure threshold. Check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for perishing rubber or hairline cracks. Inspect the brake discs for lip wear and the tyres for uneven tread patterns, as the clean MOT history does not provide specific data on the remaining life of these consumables.
