1984 Alfa Romeo 6 2.0L Petrol · A6 VFA

The Alfa Romeo 6 presents as roadworthy following the December 2025 test cycle, with a clean pass recorded at 4,572 miles on 15 December 2025. The maintenance trend is stable across the documented history, showing no advisories or defects across any entry. The recent sequence shows two failed tests on 4 December and 15 December 2025 with no defects logged, then a pass on the same date, indicating administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical fault. The odometer shows 4,572 miles against a 42 year lifespan, equating to roughly 109 miles per year. The car gained 1,211 miles between the November 2023 test at 3,217 miles and the November 2024 test at 4,428 miles, then only 144 miles in the following year to December 2025. Such low annual use over four decades suggests long dormant periods. The record itself is sparse and clean, with no corrosion, brake, suspension, or emissions concerns ever raised by testers. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody condition given the age and likely prolonged storage. Dormant vehicles commonly develop perished rubber suspension bushes, seized brake calipers, and hidden subframe corrosion not captured in a no-defect MOT. The twin failures with no recorded defects warrant confirmation that the V5 and test documentation are in order. Check the exhaust system, fuel lines, and cooling hoses for age related degradation before road use. The low mileage implies original consumables may remain fitted, so tyres, brake discs, and flexible pipes should be assessed for perishing irrespective of tread or thickness.
