2016 Alfa Romeo Giulietta 1.4L Petrol · FM65 VDJ

The 2016 Alfa Romeo Giulietta presents a stable and exemplary maintenance trend, culminating in a completely clean MOT pass on 12 January 2026 at 126,087 miles. The tester recorded zero advisories or defects, mirroring the outcome of every preceding annual test. This unbroken string of flawless passes indicates a vehicle consistently maintained to a high mechanical standard, with no recurring faults or deteriorating issues requiring remedial action. The vehicle covers roughly 12,600 miles annually, a figure that sits above the national average for a ten-year-old car. Examining the specific test dates reveals a relatively consistent usage pattern rather than erratic spikes. Between the January 2025 test at 118,533 miles and the January 2026 test at 126,087 miles, the car covered 7,554 miles. The prior year, from January 2024 at 112,446 miles to January 2025, saw a slightly lower accumulation of 6,087 miles. This steady, high-mileage usage implies regular long-distance driving rather than prolonged periods of inactivity. Despite the pristine MOT record, a physical inspection remains essential due to the car's age and high mileage. The MOT only assesses condition at the time of testing, meaning corrosion or wear can develop rapidly in the intervening months. Inspect the structural integrity of the underbody and suspension mounts, paying close attention to the condition of the coil springs and suspension bushes, which endure significant stress over 126,000 miles. Check the brake discs and calipers for any signs of binding or uneven wear, and verify the condition of the exhaust system for corrosion. While the electronic power steering and engine management systems have triggered no warnings historically, a diagnostic scan is advisable to confirm no latent fault codes exist.
