2011 Audi A1 1.4L Petrol · RV61 AEX

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 2026-04-30 at 81,266 miles, with minor issues including windscreen damage and tyres near the legal limit. Previous tests from 2022 to 2025 show a stable trend of non-critical faults, primarily windscreen chips and suspension bush wear, with no major mechanical failures. The absence of severe advisories or repeated critical failures suggests the car has been maintained to a basic standard, though recurring windscreen damage and tyre wear indicate potential neglect in addressing minor issues promptly. The vehicle’s mileage of 81,266 miles over 15 years equates to approximately 5,418 miles annually, below the average for its age, which may reflect infrequent use or periods of inactivity. MOT records show irregular intervals between tests, with the longest gap spanning 12 months between 2024-08-12 and 2025-05-28. A significant mileage jump from 59,039 miles in 2022 to 81,266 miles in 2026 suggests increased usage in recent years, though the lack of major mechanical issues in this period implies the car has not suffered accelerated wear. Recurring windscreen damage, suspension bush wear, and tyre edge wear highlight areas requiring closer inspection. The 2024 MOT noted worn suspension bushes on both front arms, which could affect handling if not replaced. Tyres in 2026 were near the legal limit, with uneven wear patterns suggesting alignment or suspension problems. The 2023 MOT identified a corroded exhaust box, though no leaks were present at the time. A buyer should verify the current condition of suspension components, check for alignment issues via tyre wear, and assess the windscreen for any hidden structural damage from repeated chips.
