The AUDI A1 (2010-15) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.4 TFSI SS 122 EU5 S LINE STRON AUTO7 is a premium hatchback: compact and easy to place in town, with a more upmarket feel than many mainstream city cars. Its three-door body and S line styling give this automatic A1 a sportier look. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 1,559 look-ups across 530 different VINs, a substantial sample for this particular version. Checks show an average private-sale valuation of £6,700 and average recorded mileage of 72,000 miles; typical annual use is around 6,000 miles. The data also indicates nearly four previous keepers on average. It suits commuters, couples and first-time buyers wanting a small premium-feeling daily car, though rear access and space are less convenient than in five-door rivals. The turbo petrol engine and automatic gearbox deliver brisk, relaxed driving, while its smart cabin helps it stand out from MINI and mainstream superminis in its class.
