2021 Audi A1 Technik 25 Tfsi S-A 1.0L Petrol · MW21 VRP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive rather than proactive upkeep. The latest test in May 2026 at 33,689 miles passed, yet it introduced advisories for the offside rear tyre being worn to the legal limit and showing signs of perishing or damage. This contrasts with the clean records seen in 2024 and 2025, suggesting that the owner is only addressing consumable replacements once they reach a failure threshold. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use vehicle, averaging approximately 6,700 miles per year over five years. Between May 2024 and May 2025, the car covered 5,264 miles, while a further 6,565 miles were recorded in the year leading up to the 2026 test. This low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, though the intervals between tests can sometimes lead to flat spotting on tyres or degradation of rubber components if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer should specifically inspect the alignment of the front suspension, as the 2024 failure noted both front tyres worn unevenly on the edges, which often indicates camber or toe-related issues. The previous headlamp cleaning device failure in 2024 should also be verified to ensure the fluid leak was properly rectified and not merely masked. Given the recent advisory on the perished offside rear tyre, a thorough check of all remaining tyres' age and tread depth is necessary to ensure they are not suffering from age-related cracking despite the low mileage of the vehicle.
