2016 Alfa Romeo Mito 0.9L Petrol · LA14 ALF

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a successful MOT test on 02 September 2025 at 103,699 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the history reveals a consistent pattern of immediate failures followed by passes. In both 2024 and 2025, the car failed the initial test just days before a successful result, suggesting that minor defects were identified and rectified immediately prior to the retest. The lack of recorded advisories on the most recent certificate indicates that the vehicle met all safety and emissions standards at that point in time. At 103,699 miles over ten years, the Alfa Romeo has averaged approximately 10,370 miles per annum, which aligns closely with typical national averages for a petrol vehicle. The mileage data shows consistent accumulation, with roughly 17,000 miles covered between August 2023 and August 2024, and another 15,514 miles covered between August 2024 and September 2025. This regular usage suggests the vehicle is driven frequently rather than sitting for long periods, which is generally beneficial for mechanical seals and engine components, However, the high mileage puts significant demand on wear items like the suspension and braking system. Because the MOT record shows no specific recurring mechanical advisories, a buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of common Alfa Romeo weak points at this mileage. Focus on the front wisharm bushes and coil springs for signs of tearing or play, as these often degrade around the six-figure mark. The braking system should be checked for binding calipers or uneven disc wear, given the age of the vehicle. Additionally, inspecting the underside for structural corrosion on the sills and rear subframe is essential to ensure no hidden rust is developing that the digital record failed to capture.
