2015 Alfa Romeo Giulietta 2.0L Diesel · LS65 RNX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a pattern of reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent test on December 19, 2025 at 99,838 miles shows a pass only after addressing multiple failures involving brake lines, tyres, and suspension. While the immediate faults were rectified, the recurring nature of these issues across tests suggests the owner only addresses repairs when necessitated by an MOT failure, rather than performing routine preventative maintenance. At nearly 100,000 miles, this eleven-year-old Giulia has averaged approximately 9,000 miles per year, which aligns with typical UK usage for its age. The data shows consistent use, with 11,458 miles covered between September 2023 and October 2024, and another 4,789 miles in the fourteen-month period leading to December 2025. This steady mileage indicates the car is used regularly, which generally helps prevent premature seizing of rubber components and braking systems. A buyer must conduct a close physical inspection of the suspension and braking system prior to purchase. The tester flagged a worn offside front suspension arm bush in late 2025, and previous records show thin brake pads and worn discs in 2024. The presence of corroded brake pipes covered in grease during the 2025 test is a specific concern as grease is often used to mask surface corrosion from the tester. Additionally, the history of tyre failures indicates that previous owners have neglected tyre replacement until they reached legal minimum limits, necessitating a thorough check of the current set for uneven wear or sidewall cracking.
