2021 Audi A1 1.0L Petrol · SH21 LML

The vehicle currently holds a clean roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT on 5 March 2026 at 29,245 miles with no defects recorded. This indicates a stable maintenance trend compared to the previous year where several advisories were identified. The transition to a clean sheet suggests that the owner addressed the wear-related issues flagged during the prior inspection. The mileage pattern is consistently low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,850 miles per annum. The data shows steady usage, moving from 17,674 miles in March 2024 to 23,743 miles in March 2025, and reaching 29,245 miles by early 2026. This low mileage typically reduces mechanical strain on the drivetrain and engine, though it can sometimes lead to rubber-based components degrading through age rather than use. A buyer should pay close attention to the tyres, as the March 2025 test flagged multiple tyres for cracking and perishing, as well as the nearside front tyre being near the legal limit. While the 2026 test shows no issues, the history of perishing suggests the car may sit for long periods. A physical inspection of the sidewalls for dry rot is necessary to ensure the rubber compound has not become brittle despite the low mileage. Given there are no recorded structural corrosion or brake failures in the history, the focus should remain on consumables and age-related wear. Verify that the brake discs are not heavily pitted, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from surface rust. The overall record reflects a well-kept vehicle that has responded well to maintenance advisories.
