2015 Audi A1 1.6L Diesel · SP15 MTF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in February 2026 with 86,082 miles and no recorded defects. The maintenance trend has improved following a period of mechanical neglect in early 2023. While the car previously struggled with exhaust failures and suspension issues, the two most recent tests show clean sheets, indicating that the previous owner addressed the flagged faults and maintained the vehicle effectively since. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,800 miles per year. There is a notable gap of roughly 5,600 miles between March 2023 and November 2023, followed by a more rapid accumulation of 13,000 miles between 2023 and 2025. This suggests regular use rather than long periods of standing, which is generally beneficial for maintaining the integrity of engine seals and preventing brake-related corrosion often seen in stationary cars. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension, as the offside front coil spring fractured in February 2023 at 68,127 miles. Although this was repaired, the recurring nature of exhaust corrosion across 2023 and 2024 suggests that the exhaust system is prone to rapid rust. Inspect the mounting brackets and silencer for signs of fresh perforation to ensure the previous repairs were not merely temporary fixes. Given the history of tyre damage, checking the current tread depth and uneven wear patterns is also advisable.
