ALFA ROMEO MITO2009 · 1.4L Petrol

The Alfa Romeo Mito stands as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trajectory, confirmed by the 14 February 2026 MOT test at 95,326 miles which recorded no defects or advisories. The DVSA history shows no mechanical faults across the available entries, indicating consistent compliance. Registered in 2009, the car has covered roughly 5,607 miles per year, a low figure for its age. The record spans just five tests between February 2024 and February 2026. On 15 February 2024 the tester logged a fail and a pass at 68,362 miles on the same day, and on 14 February 2025 a fail at 80,759 miles preceded a pass at 80,786 miles next day. Such paired outcomes with no defects noted point to administrative re-submissions rather than neglected repairs. The gradual annual accumulation from 68,362 to 80,786 to 95,326 miles shows light but regular use, suggesting the previous keeper avoided heavy wear while keeping the vehicle tested. Despite the clean MOT ledger, a buyer should physically verify components the annual test may not flag as urgent. The Mito's suspension bushes and coil springs warrant hands-on inspection for perishing or fracture after seventeen years. Examine brake discs for scoring and calipers for binding, particularly given low mileage that can encourage seizing. Check structural integrity at sill and arch sections for corrosion, and confirm exhaust emissions remain within limits under warm operation.
