2020 Alfa Romeo Giulia 2.0L Petrol · LS20 ELO

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a worsening condition regarding braking components. While it passed its most recent test in December 2025 at 37,558 miles, the tester flagged pitted and scored front and rear brake discs alongside thin front brake pads. This follows a failure in December 2024 where the rear pads and discs were already identified as worn. The progression from rear only to total axle wear suggests a lack of proactive preventative maintenance between service intervals. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-useage vehicle, averaging approximately 6,260 miles per year. The record shows a steady increase of 1,369 miles between May 2023 and December 2023, and another 5,725 miles between December 2024 and December 2025. While low annual mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and suspension, the presence of pitting on the brake discs suggests the vehicle may sit for long periods, allowing corrosion to form on the metal surfaces despite the low distance travelled. A prospective buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system. The recurring reports of pitting and scoring on the discs across two consecutive years indicate that the previous owners only replaced components once they reached the point of MOT failure. You should verify if the TPMS warning light, which was a known fault in late 2024, has been cleared and if the sensors are functional. Additionally, check the headlamp alignment to ensure the fix from the 2024 failure remains stable and has not drifted out of specification due to vibration or poor adjustment.
