2020 Audi A1 S Line Sportback 1.0 TFSI Manual

Description

So I’ve been driving this 2020 Audi A1 S Line for a few years now, and honestly, it’s one of the most reliable little hatchbacks I’ve ever had. It’s got that sharp, sporty look with the S Line styling — the twin-spoke alloy wheels, the perforated leather steering wheel, and the structured grey paint finish give it a bit of edge without being flashy.

It’s a 1.0L TFSI engine, 116ps, Euro 6 compliant — so clean running, low emissions, and it gets up to 51 mpg. That means fewer trips to the petrol station, which I really appreciate. The 0-60 in 9.7 seconds isn’t exactly rocket science, but it’s smooth and responsive enough for daily drives and quick bursts when you need them.

I’ve had it through a full service history — last one done in January 2025, at 44,115 miles. The MOT runs until March 2026, and the history check shows no red flags. It’s been well looked after, and I’ve kept it pretty tidy — the interior’s clean, all the seats are in good shape, and the 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster is easy to read.

It’s got a decent list of smart features: Bluetooth, DAB radio, cruise control, rear parking sensors, light and rain sensor, LED headlights with dynamic indicators. The seat belts have height adjusters, and there’s a full set of safety gear — airbags, ABS, ESP, hill hold assist, and even a first aid kit.

I’ve also got a tool kit, a tyre repair kit, and a spare key in the glovebox. The interior is clean, with nice details like the S line badges and the leatherette handbrake grip. The alloy wheels are 17-inch, partly polished, and the seats are comfortable for long drives.

It’s been in a leasing company before, so it had a few different drivers — that might be something to note if you’re curious, but the car itself has been maintained well.

I’m based in Cuffley, Welwyn Hatfield, and if you’re interested, I can arrange a view or even a click-and-collect if you’re in the UK. I’ve had a few people ask about it — it’s not the fastest car, but it’s solid, practical, and feels like it’s been built to last.

The price is £13,494.60 — I know that’s a lot, but it’s a well-maintained, service-backed car with good value for someone looking for a reliable, stylish hatchback.

If you’re thinking about it, I’ve got a £99 reservation fee that’s fully refundable if you don’t go through with it — no pressure, just a chance to check it out.

I’ve been in the car trade for a while now — I actually work at Essex Car Company, which has been around since 2008 and runs a lot of cars on-site. They’ve got a great team, and I’ve seen a lot of different models, so I know what’s good and what’s not. I’d definitely recommend it if you’re after something that’s both practical and a bit sporty.

If you’re looking for a car that doesn’t just get you from A to B, but actually feels like it’s doing its job — this one might be worth a look.
