2012 ALFA ROMEO GIULIETTA2.0L Diesel

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 14 October 2025 at 78,674 miles, indicating a stable roadworthiness status. While the record shows consecutive failures immediately preceding each pass in 2024 and 2025, the absence of recorded defects suggests these were likely administrative or minor technical glitches rather than significant mechanical failures. The car has consistently cleared its annual inspection without long-term advisories, which points to a well-maintained vehicle that has not suffered from chronic structural or component degradation. With an average annual usage of approximately 5,620 miles over its 14-year lifespan, the vehicle exhibits a low-mileage profile. The consistency of the mileage accumulation, moving from 74,283 miles in October 2023 to 78,674 miles by October 2025, confirms the car has remained in regular, light use rather than sitting idle for extended periods. This pattern typically avoids the common issues associated with long-term storage, such as seized brake calipers, fuel degradation, or perished rubber seals, though the low usage still warrants a thorough check of all fluid levels and belt condition. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and braking systems, as these components often deteriorate on older vehicles regardless of low mileage. Inspect the coil springs for signs of corrosion or snapping and check the suspension bushes for any play or perishing that might have been overlooked during testing. Given the age of the Alfa Romeo Giulietta, verify the timing belt replacement history, as this is a critical maintenance item that does not appear in the MOT data but is essential for preventing catastrophic engine failure. Confirm that the handbrake holds firmly on an incline and check the tyre sidewalls for cracking, which can occur on older rubber even when tread depth remains within legal limits.
