Our Verdict
A solid option for those seeking a high-mileage diesel, provided the price reflects its usage. The recent clean MOT history is a positive indicator, though the mileage is significantly higher than the model average.
When inspecting this specific 1.6L diesel A1, focus on the service history to ensure the timing belt and water pump have been changed, which is critical for engines with over 100,000 miles. Given the high mileage, check for any signs of oil leaks or excessive diesel soot around the exhaust.
Negotiate based on the mileage; at over 107,000 miles, this vehicle has been used much more intensively than the typical 6,775 miles per year seen in the wider Audi A1 dataset. Ensure you verify the status of the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF), as high-mileage diesels can face issues if used primarily for short urban trips.
As a 1.6L diesel, this Audi A1 is likely to offer efficient fuel economy, particularly on motorway journeys. However, buyers should check the specific tax band and insurance group, as these vary based on exact trim levels.
Maintenance costs for an Audi of this age can be higher than budget brands, especially for components like suspension or sensors. Expect typical running costs to include higher-than-average tyre and brake replacement intervals due to the accumulated mileage.
Based on the aggregate data for this model, pay close attention to the suspension components, specifically the ball joints and coil springs, which are common failure points. Although this vehicle's recent MOTs show no defects, these parts are prone to wear at the 100,000-mile mark.
Additionally, check the headlamps for clarity and functionality, as headlamp issues are a frequent reason for failure in the wider Audi A1 population. Finally, inspect the tyres and brake pads, as the high mileage suggests these consumables will likely be nearing the end of their service life.
This 2013 grey Audi A1 features a 1.6L diesel engine and has covered 107,905 miles as of its last MOT in February 2026. While it has experienced two MOT failures in recent years (2024 and 2025), it has passed its most recent test with no defects recorded. The vehicle has been driven considerably more than the aggregate annual average for this model.
Aggregate data shows an 83.4% MOT pass rate for this model, with common mechanical issues involving ball joints, coil springs, and headlamps.
