2018 Audi A1 1.6L Diesel · RO68 ABU

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT in September 2025 at 55,180 miles with no defects recorded. This indicates an improving trend in maintenance standards following a failure in the previous year. While the 2024 test identified specific issues with tyre condition and lighting alignment, the lack of advisories in the latest report suggests the owner addressed previous mechanical concerns and maintained the vehicle well since then. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical annual use for this age, averaging approximately 6,900 miles per year. There is a significant gap in recorded data between September 2023 at 11,160 miles and September 2024 at 29,622 miles, representing a spike of over 18,000 miles in twelve months. Since then, the usage has returned to a more moderate rate of roughly 7,300 miles annually. This low mileage suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to excessive motorway stress, which generally preserves the longevity of the drivetrain and rubber components. A buyer should pay close attention to the suspension alignment and tyre history. The September 2023 test flagged bald front tyres with uneven wear patterns, which often points to incorrect wheel geometry or worn suspension bushes. Additionally, the 2024 failure regarding perishing and cracking on both rear tyres indicates the vehicle may have sat for long periods despite the low mileage. A physical inspection of the current sidewalls for dry rot and a check of the front tyre wear are necessary to ensure the previous alignment issues have been permanently rectified.
