2017 Audi A1 1.4L Petrol · RJ67 GGA

This 2017 Audi A1 presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a fully clean MOT pass on 2 March 2026 at 76,957 miles with zero defects recorded. The vehicle has never failed an MOT or received an advisory across its entire documented history, which is a strong indicator of consistent mechanical upkeep and responsible ownership over its nine-year lifespan. The mileage accumulation tells a clear story of regular, moderate use. From 22,118 miles in December 2020 to 29,924 miles by December 2021, the car covered roughly 7,800 miles in that single year. The pace then slowed noticeably, with only 38,609 miles added between December 2021 and March 2026, averaging around 9,000 miles per year over that four-year window. The gap between the December 2021 test and the next recorded MOT in March 2025 is over three years, which is longer than the standard annual cycle. This could reflect a period of reduced use or the vehicle spending time off the road, though the clean pass in 2025 suggests no deterioration occurred during that interval. Despite the flawless MOT record, a buyer should still inspect the underside for corrosion, particularly around suspension mounting points, subframes, and inner wing arches, as these areas are prone to surface rust on vehicles of this age regardless of test outcomes. The front and rear brake discs and pads deserve close attention given the mileage, since consumable wear is not always visible in MOT data until it becomes a failure. Suspension bushes and coil springs should be checked for perishing or cracking, common issues on small hatchbacks that see urban driving over nine years. The tyre condition across all four corners warrants a hands-on look, especially given the three-year gap between recorded tests where uneven wear or age-related sidewall damage could have developed unnoticed. The exhaust system, including the catalytic converter and mountings, should be inspected for corrosion or leaks that may not yet have triggered a failure. A short test drive over varied road surfaces will reveal any emerging issues with steering alignment, suspension damping, or drivetrain vibration that a stationary MOT inspection cannot fully capture.
