2016 Audi A1 1.4L Petrol · MM66 CLO

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a successful MOT test on 18 March 2026 at 82,765 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car has consistently passed its annual inspections without recorded major defects. While the record shows two failures immediately preceding the last two passes, the lack of recorded defects on the failure reports suggests these were likely minor non-compliance items or administrative-related issues that were rectified prior to the re-test. The mileage progression is consistent with a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,276 miles per annum. Between the March 2024 test at 56,500 miles and the March 2025 test at 71,033 miles, the car covered 14,533 miles, indicating a period of higher than average usage. However, the usage moderated back to 11,732 miles in the most recent year. This pattern suggests regular use which is generally beneficial for preventing the degradation of seals and mechanical components. Since the MOT history shows no structural corrosion or recurring mechanical failures, a buyer should focus on a physical inspection of wear-related components common to this age. Check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of fatigue, as these often degrade around 80,000 miles. Examine the brake discs for thinning or uneven wear and ensure the tyres are not showing mismatched patterns which could indicate alignment issues. The clean history indicates a vehicle that has been maintained to a basic standard, but a physical check of rubber components and fluid levels remains necessary.
