ALFA ROMEO GIULIA1965 · 1.6L PETROL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by its most recent clean MOT result. The test conducted on 21 March 2025 at 55,736 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the primary mechanical and structural components met the required standards upon inspection. This follows a period of consistent passes, suggesting that the vehicle has maintained a consistent level of mechanical integrity over the last decade of testing. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a sixty-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 914 miles per year. Data shows a significant gap in usage between November 2017 at 55,207 miles and March 2025 at 55,736 miles, representing only 529 miles driven over over seven years. While this low mileage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine components, such long periods of standing often lead to the degradation of seals, fluid chemistry, and brake corrosion that MOT records may not fully capture. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension geometry and rubber components, despite the clean recent record. The October 2016 test at 55,125 miles flagged slight play in the nearside track rod end ball joint, which was likely rectified but highlights the need to check all steering linkages and bushings for perish. Given the age of the Alfa Romeo, a thorough check for structural integrity around the sills and floor-related mounting is essential, as these areas are prone to corrosion on vehicles that have remained stationary for extended periods.
