AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The Alfa Romeo Mito presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 6 February 2026 at 115,680 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results since February 2023. The vehicle shows no escalating faults, advisories, or repeated failures across the available history. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a 2012 car, averaging roughly 8,263 miles per year. The record moves from 99,940 miles at the 20 February 2023 test to 104,264 miles in February 2024, then 110,141 miles in February 2025, and 115,680 miles by February 2026. Annual use held near 5,000 to 5,500 miles, with no sudden jumps or dormant periods suggesting neglect. A failed test on 11 February 2025 at 110,140 miles was followed by a pass at 110,141 miles the same day, with no defects listed on either entry, indicating a clerical or process anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. The sparse, clean MOT data gives no flagged concerns on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion. A buyer should still commission an independent physical inspection. At 115,680 miles and 14 years old, consumable items such as tyres, wiper blades, and brake pad thickness warrant verification, alongside underbody checks for rust and suspension wear not captured by the tester. Previous keepers appear to have maintained the car to a basic pass standard with no deferred consumable replacements noted in the record. The absence of advisories across five years suggests either light use or quiet running gear, but does not exempt the buyer from confirming clutch condition, cambelt interval, and fluid changes absent from MOT scope.
