1991 ALFA ROMEO SPIDER2.0L PETROL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful test in April 2026 at 69,762 miles. The maintenance trend shows a reactive pattern where specific faults are addressed immediately following a failure. While the car failed its most recent test on April 9th due to nearside lamp failure and aim issues, these were rectified quickly to achieve a clean pass just five days later. This suggests the owner is responsive to MOT safety-critical failures rather than allowing defects to persist. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 35-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,000 miles per year. The data shows consistent, low-intensity usage, moving from 64,835 miles in April 2024 to 69,762 miles in April 2026. This low mileage typically reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it often increases the risk of dry rot in rubber parts and fluid degradation due to long periods of stationary time. A buyer must conduct a close physical inspection of the braking system and hardware, as the 2024 failure for excessively chafed front brake hoses indicates that rubber components are a point of concern. Given the age of the vehicle and the low mileage, the inspector should check for cracking in all coolant hoses, suspension bushes, and perished seals that age regardless of distance driven. The structural integrity of the chassis remains a priority for this model, as the record does not explicitly detail past corrosion, but low-mileage classics often hide hidden surface rust in areas where moisture accumulates.
