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

The 2008 Alfa Romeo GT is currently not roadworthy, having failed the May 6 2025 MOT at 80,699 miles. The vehicle passed its May 2 2024 test at 77,823 miles with no defects recorded, but the subsequent failure shows a clear deterioration rather than improvement, indicating a worsening maintenance trend. Mileage accumulation has been uneven: from 2015 (33,917 mi) to 2025 (80,699 mi) the car has covered roughly 46,782 mi in ten years, averaging about 4,678 mi per year, which is higher than the low‑usage pattern suggested by the early‑life records. Notably, the 2022‑2024 interval saw a rapid gain of 8,507 mi in just two years, and the 2018‑2019 period recorded identical mileage (53,622 mi) on two consecutive tests, suggesting a possible data entry error or missed inspection. A buyer should therefore prioritize a thorough in‑person inspection of the suspension components – the front and rear lower arm ball joints were judged excessively worn in 2025 and showed slight play in earlier tests – and verify the integrity of the rear brake cable and disc, which have been insecure and significantly worn respectively. The parking brake efficiency, which fell below 50 % in 2019, and the condition of the exhaust mounting, flagged as defective in 2025, also merit close examination, as do the tyres that have repeatedly been recorded near the legal limit and the windscreen wiper that failed to clear effectively in the latest test.
