2019 Alfa Romeo Giulia 2.0L Petrol · DC19 EEV

The Alfa Romeo Giulia’s most recent MOT test on 12 December 2025—just seven months ago—confirms the vehicle remains roadworthy with no defects recorded. This clean pass follows a consistent pattern of compliance over the past two years, with no advisories or recurring failures since the July 2022 test. The absence of structural or safety-critical warnings in recent tests suggests the vehicle has been maintained at a basic level, though the lack of advisory notes means critical components like suspension bushes, coil springs, or binding calipers have not been explicitly checked. The final pass at 61,927 miles indicates the brakes, exhaust emissions, and structural integrity were deemed acceptable at that point, though wear on consumables like pads and discs may have since progressed. Mileage progression reveals a steady accumulation of approximately 8,847 miles annually, which aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. The gap between the 2023 and 2025 tests—covering 15,624 miles in just over two years—does not indicate abnormal wear, though it does suggest the vehicle was driven regularly without prolonged periods of inactivity. The consistent mileage increments between tests (e.g., 829 miles between the January 2025 and December 2025 passes) imply the owner adhered to the MOT cycle without undue delay, though this does not guarantee intermediate maintenance was performed. The lack of a 2024 test is notable but not inherently concerning unless paired with other signs of neglect. The most significant historical pattern is the July 2022 failure, where front and rear brake pads were below the 1.5mm threshold and discs exhibited pitting or scoring. While this was rectified before the subsequent test, the recurrence of windscreen damage—flagged in both 2022 and 2023—implies either repeated minor impacts or a lack of proactive repair. A buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of the brake system, particularly the rear calipers and discs, to confirm there is no binding or uneven wear since the last test. Suspension components, including bushings and ball joints, should also be examined for deterioration, as these are not routinely tested under MOT but can degrade rapidly with this mileage. Structural corrosion, especially around wheel arches and sills, warrants scrutiny given the vehicle’s age, while the engine bay and exhaust system should be checked for leaks or excessive rust, as these are not covered by the MOT’s visual inspection.
