2011 Audi A1 1.6L Diesel · WB02 AMY

The vehicle presents a moderate roadworthiness status, though the history indicates a reactive maintenance pattern rather than preventative care. The most recent test in January 2024 at 128,983 miles shows the car passing after addressing multiple failures related to lighting, tyres, and steering components. While the vehicle is currently legal, the recurring nature of failures in 2022 and 2024 suggests that the owner only addresses mechanical issues when forced by an MOT test failure. At 128,983 miles over 15 years, the Audi has averaged approximately 8,600 miles per year, which aligns with typical annual usage for a small hatchback. There is a significant gap in data between the November 2021 test at 114,114 miles and the December 2022 test at 124,244 miles, representing over 10,000 miles driven in thirteen months. Since the last recorded MOT in January 2024, the vehicle has not been tested for over two years, meaning the current state of aging components, such as rubber bushes and brake system integrity, remains unverified. A buyer must inspect the front suspension and steering closely, as the record shows repeated issues with track rod ends, drag link ends, and suspension arm bushes. The December 2022 failure specifically highlighted significantly worn brake discs, indicating the braking system may be neglected until critical. Additionally, the 2024 failure regarding a distorted offside rear wheel and multiple tyres worn to the limit suggests the vehicle may have suffered an impact or suffers from poor alignment. Verification of the offside front seat belt condition and the current state of all tyres is also necessary to ensure previous faults have not regred.
