2016 Alfa Romeo Giulietta 1.6L Diesel · YT66 AAZ

This Alfa Romeo Giulietta has maintained a consistent MOT history with no defects recorded across five consecutive tests, most recently passing on 11 November 2025 at 82,814 miles. The absence of advisories or failings suggests the vehicle has undergone regular servicing, though the lack of recorded defects does not preclude underlying issues requiring visual or functional verification. The most recent test was conducted just eight months ago, which is acceptable but not optimal—ideally, an MOT should be within six months of the current date to ensure up-to-date roadworthiness. The pattern of clean passes indicates no obvious recurring failures, but the record does not provide insight into service intervals or pre-MOT maintenance. The mileage progression reveals a steady accumulation of approximately 8,281 miles annually, which aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. There are no abrupt jumps or prolonged periods of inactivity, though the gap between the 2023 January and December tests (12,530 miles in 11 months) suggests either consistent driving or a single long-distance trip. The absence of any advisory notes in prior tests means no evidence of deferred maintenance or neglect, but the lack of service records complicates deeper assessment. Buyers should note that while the mileage is reasonable, the vehicle has not been subjected to a pre-purchase inspection or detailed mechanical review beyond MOT standards. Given the clean MOT history, priority should be given to inspecting high-wear components that are not routinely tested. The suspension—particularly coil springs, bushes, and shock absorbers—should be examined for uneven wear or fluid leaks, as these are critical for handling and safety but not always flagged in an MOT. Brake discs and pads, while not failed in tests, may show uneven wear or corrosion, especially if the vehicle has experienced wet conditions. The subframe and wheel arches should be scrutinised for corrosion, as this model is prone to rust in these areas, even with low mileage. Finally, the exhaust system and catalytic converter should be checked for leaks or damage, as these are common failure points in Alfa Romeo models of this era. A thorough check of the engine bay for oil leaks or degraded hoses is also advisable, as these issues often develop gradually without MOT detection.
