2015 Audi A1 1.0L Petrol · VO65 AEV

This 2015 Audi A1 has demonstrated consistent roadworthiness across five consecutive MOT tests, all passing without defects or advisories at the most recent November 2025 inspection at 97,073 miles. The absence of any recurring issues or advisory notes suggests the vehicle has been maintained at a basic level, though no evidence of proactive servicing beyond statutory MOT compliance is visible. The latest test date, just six months ago, indicates the vehicle remains legally roadworthy, though buyers should verify whether the current owner has adhered to manufacturer-recommended service intervals for components like timing belts, suspension bushes, and fuel system filters—none of which are covered by MOT testing. The recorded mileage progression of roughly 8,825 miles annually aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, with no abrupt spikes or prolonged periods of inactivity. The most significant mileage jump occurred between the 2021 (43,004 miles) and 2022 (57,563 miles) tests, adding 14,559 miles in under a year, which could imply either increased usage or a period of neglect before consistent mileage resumed. The even spacing of tests—all within a week of the anniversary month—ensures no MOT lapses, but the lack of pre-MOT servicing records means critical wear items may not have been addressed before testing. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer’s primary focus should be on high-wear components not tested under MOT regulations. The suspension, particularly coil springs and bushes, warrants inspection for uneven sagging or excessive play, as these are rarely flagged until failure. Brake systems, though not noted in past tests, should be checked for uneven pad thickness or glazed discs—recurring binding or noise would indicate neglect. Corrosion is a concern for a vehicle this age; the subframe, wheel arches, and sills should be scrutinised for pitting or structural weakening, especially if the car has spent time in wet or salted environments. Finally, the exhaust system’s integrity should be verified, as catalytic converter or oxygen sensor failures often go unnoticed until emissions tests fail.
