2010 Alfa Romeo Giulietta 1.4L Petrol · EO60 YCT

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in January 2026 at 72,157 miles. The maintenance trend shows signs of improvement following a significant failure in late 2022. While the car previously struggled with critical brake and suspension defects, the subsequent two tests have only flagged minor advisories regarding a deteriorated registration plate, indicating that the primary mechanical concerns were addressed and the vehicle has remained stable over the last eighteen months. At sixteen years old, the recorded mileage of 72,157 miles represents a low annual average of approximately 4,500 miles. The data reveals a notable gap in usage between May 2023 and May 2024, where the car covered only 663 miles in nearly a year. This low-frequency use often suggests the vehicle sits for long periods, which can lead to the degradation of rubber components, seized calipers, or flat-spotted despite the low mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain typically associated with high-mileage vehicles. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the rear suspension and braking system. The September 2022 failure highlighted corroded rear coil springs and severely worn discs and pads, and while these were replaced, the buyer must check for continued surface rust on the mounting points and ensure the calipers are not binding. The 2023 advisory regarding a front outer tyre worn on the edge suggests a potential alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that should be verified to prevent premature tyre wear in the future.
