2013 ALFA ROMEO MITO0.9L Petrol

The vehicle’s most recent MOT, conducted on 2025-05-10 at 59,418 miles, confirmed roadworthiness with no defects recorded. A consistent pattern of passing tests over the past three years—2023-2025—indicates stable maintenance practices. No critical issues were flagged in the latest assessment, suggesting the owner has addressed prior concerns promptly. However, the 2022-03-28 test recorded a failure at the same mileage as a prior pass, though no defects were noted, raising questions about the accuracy of the record or potential unresolved issues. The vehicle’s mileage of 59,418 miles over 13 years equates to approximately 4,571 miles annually, significantly below the UK average for its age. This low usage may indicate periods of inactivity, which can accelerate wear on components like suspension bushes, brake calipers, and battery health. The MOT timeline reveals irregular intervals, with a three-year gap between the 2022 tests and the 2025 assessment. While the absence of defects is positive, the sparse testing frequency means potential issues may have gone undetected. A buyer should conduct a detailed inspection of the suspension system, particularly coil springs and bushings, given the low mileage and possible storage-related wear. Check for brake disc corrosion or uneven pad wear, as infrequent use can lead to binding calipers. The exhaust system and underbody should also be examined for rust, as prolonged inactivity increases corrosion risk. Despite the clean MOT history, the vehicle’s maintenance record lacks depth, necessitating a hands-on evaluation to confirm its mechanical integrity.
