Our Verdict
This 2011 Alfa Romeo Brera offers striking Italian styling and a relatively clean recent MOT history with no major advisory notes. However, buyers should approach with eyes open regarding the higher-than-average mileage and potential mechanical upkeep typical of this Italian coupé.
When inspecting this Brera, verify the service history meticulously to ensure oil changes and maintenance have kept pace with its heavy usage. Check the timing chain on the 2.2 JTS engine, as stretch and wear are known concerns for this powerplant. Negotiate on price if there are any pending suspension or suspension component replacements due, keeping in mind the common model failures regarding coil springs and tyres.
Running a 2.2-litre petrol Alfa Romeo Brera involves mid-tier fuel consumption, likely averaging around 30-35 mpg on mixed runs. Road tax will sit in the higher VED brackets typical of older petrol engines with moderate emissions, and insurance will fall into a sporty grouping reflecting its coupé styling. Routine maintenance should include a healthy contingency budget for potential suspension components and regular servicing.
Pay close attention to the suspension setup, specifically looking out for worn coil springs and dampers which are common MOT failure points for this model line. Inspect the tyres thoroughly across all four corners for uneven wear or aging tread. Given the historical MOT pattern of same-day fail-and-pass results, ask the seller for context on what was addressed during those test sessions.
Finished in a timeless black hue and powered by a 2.2-litre petrol engine, this 2011 model has covered 104,814 miles as of its March 2026 test. Its recent MOT track record shows it passing cleanly after initial same-day rectifications in both 2025 and 2026, pointing to a car that is currently roadworthy despite its higher mileage. With an annual mileage significantly outpacing the model average, it has clearly been used regularly rather than stored away.
The Alfa Romeo Brera holds a 74.9% average MOT pass rate across the UK fleet, with suspension coil springs, tyres, and headlamps forming the most common failure points.
