2015 Alfa Romeo Mito 0.9L Petrol · EA65 HKC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend is clearly deteriorating rather than stable or improving. The most recent test on 2025-08-13 was a pass at 59,273 miles, which is exceptionally low for a 2015 model, suggesting a lack of recent maintenance or a significant drop-off in service. This is a critical indicator that the vehicle has been under significant stress since its first test on 2018-09-20, which was a failure at 43,846 miles. The rapid acceleration of mileage over the last two years (from 43,846 to 59,273) indicates that the vehicle has not been properly maintained, likely due to a lack of regular servicing. Regarding the mileage pattern, the vehicle has experienced a severe gap in maintenance between 2018 and 2019, where it passed twice without any defects. This gap represents a significant period of inactivity, which is a major red flag for a 2015 model. The mileage accumulation during this gap has been rapid, with the car reaching 51,950 miles in October 2019, which is well below the legal limit for a 2015 model. While the mileage is low overall, the specific gap in service between 2018 and 2019 is a clear signal that the vehicle has not been kept in good mechanical condition, suggesting that basic upkeep was skipped during this period. In conclusion, the owner should be advised to inspect the vehicle immediately due to the recurring faults and the lack of maintenance history. The most recent MOT on 2025-08-13 was a pass at 59,273 miles, which is very low for a 2015 model, indicating that the car has not been serviced since 2018. The vehicle has suffered from multiple faults, including a fractured coil spring, a worn rear brake disc, and an excessively binding rear brake, all of which pose serious risks. Given the 11-year age of the car and the lack of recent maintenance, the risk of failure is high. The owner must inspect the car to identify the source of the faults, particularly the brake and suspension components, which may be prone to failure given the age and mileage.
