2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio 2.0L Petrol · GL68 SVF

The 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio presents a clean and stable maintenance trend across its entire MOT history. The most recent test on 2 July 2025 at 34,784 miles passed with zero defects, continuing an unbroken record of five consecutive passes with no advisories or failures. This pattern indicates consistent mechanical upkeep and no emerging faults over the last four years of recorded testing. The mileage accumulation tells a clear story of light use. The vehicle has covered roughly 17,326 miles over four years, averaging approximately 4,331 miles per year, which is well below the UK average. The intervals between tests show steady, predictable accumulation: 1,129 miles between January and July 2023, 7,167 miles between July 2023 and July 2024, and 6,178 miles between July 2024 and July 2025. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes in mileage that would suggest odometer tampering or prolonged periods of disuse. The annual testing pattern, with tests clustering around mid-year, suggests a single regular keeper or a consistent servicing routine. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer should still carry out a thorough physical inspection. The Stelvio's rear suspension bushes and front lower arm bushes are known to deteriorate on higher-mileage examples, and the absence of flagged defects at 34,784 miles does not guarantee these components are free from age-related perishing. The rear brake calipers on this model are prone to binding, a fault that can develop between tests and may not always trigger an MOT failure immediately. Inspect the inner edges of all four brake discs for uneven wear and check the handbrake efficiency on a slope. The 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine should be examined for oil weeping around the cam cover and turbocharger feed pipes, common issues on this powertrain. Underneath the vehicle, check the subframes and suspension mounting points for surface corrosion, particularly if the car has spent time standing during its low-mileage life. Tyre condition should also be verified, as the staggered wheel setup on many Stelvio variants can lead to uneven rear tyre wear that MOT testers may not flag until tread depth approaches the 1.6mm minimum.
