Our Verdict
A sensible purchase for those seeking a
When inspecting this specific YE22UYC, check the service history to ensure the brake components identified in the 2025 MOT (nearside and offside front discs and pads) were replaced. Since the 2026 MOT shows no defects, the previous issues appear to have been addressed, but physical inspection of the braking system is still advised.
Given the 999cc engine size, ensure the vehicle has been serviced according to Audi's requirements, as smaller turbocharged engines can be sensitive to oil quality. Ask for documentation regarding the tyre replacement noted in the 2025 record to confirm it was a quality replacement rather than a temporary fix.
The 999cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency, likely placing this vehicle in a lower insurance group and tax band compared to larger capacity Audis. Fuel economy should be competitive for a premium small hatchback.
Maintenance costs will be typical for a premium brand; while parts like brake discs and pads are consumables that were flagged in 2025, they are standard maintenance items. Expect annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and scheduled servicing, to fall within a moderate range for this segment.
Focus your inspection on the braking system. The 2025 MOT history specifically noted worn, pitted, or scored discs on both the nearside and offside front, along with thin pads. Verify that these parts have been renewed and that there is no excessive vibration when braking.
Also, check the condition of the tyres. The 2025 record noted a nail in the nearside rear tyre (size 215/45/R17). Ensure all four tyres currently have adequate tread depth and no signs of uneven wear, which could indicate suspension issues. Finally, check for common model failure points like coil springs or ball joints, which are noted as top failure reasons for the Audi A1 aggregate data.
This 2022 white Audi A1 with the 999cc petrol engine has covered 43,106 miles in approximately four years. While the 2025 MOT highlighted issues with brake discs, pads, and a tyre, the most recent test in June 2026 passed with no defects recorded. The mileage is higher than the model average of 6,781 per year, suggesting frequent use.
Aggregate data for the Audi A1 shows an 83.5% MOT pass rate, with common failure points including coil springs, headlamps, and ball joints.
