2023 Audi A1 1.0L Petrol · ML23 YSA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a pass in the 13 March 2026 test. While the car met the legal requirements, the record indicates a lapse in basic consumable maintenance regarding the tyres. The maintenance trend appears stable as there are no mechanical or structural failures recorded, but the presence of advisory-level wear suggests immediate attention is required to prevent a future failure. At 17,218 miles after three years, the A1 reflects significantly below average mileage, averaging approximately 5,700 miles per year. This low usage profile typically implies less strain on the engine, drivetrain, and suspension components compared to higher-mile vehicles. However, low-mile patterns can sometimes lead to flat-spotting or brake corrosion if the vehicle sits for extended periods, though no such issues were noted in the available history. A buyer must inspect the front axle thoroughly before purchase. The March 2026 test flagged both the nearside and offside front tyres as worn close to the legal limit, with the offside tyre specifically reaching 2mm. The uneven wear noted on the edges suggests a potential alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that require adjustment. A physical inspection of the brake discs is also necessary to ensure the low mileage has not resulted in surface pitting or seized calipers.
