2011 Alfa Romeo Giulietta 2.0L Diesel · OV11 YNX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the most recent inspection history indicates a trend of worsening mechanical wear. While the car passed its latest test in August 2025 at 102,584 miles, it failed just one day prior due to multiple failures across the suspension and lighting. The transition from a clean record in 2024 to a multi-point failure suggests that components are reaching the end of their functional life simultaneously due to age. The recorded mileage of 102,584 miles over 15 years reflects an average usage pattern of approximately 6,800 miles per year, which is consistent with a typical domestic vehicle. There is a significant data anomaly in the August 2022 entry which lists 872,329 miles; this is clearly a clerical entry error given the impossibility of such mileage. Excluding that outlier, the mileage accumulation shows steady use, with roughly 9,800 miles covered between 2024 and 2025, indicating the car has not sat stationary but has faced consistent stress on rubber components and mechanical joints. A buyer must physically inspect the front suspension assembly, as the August 2025 failure flagged excessive wear on ball joints and rear bushes on the nearside and offside lower arms. These issues often lead to unpredictable handling and uneven tyre wear if not replaced with quality parts. Furthermore, the tester noted corrosion on both rear coil springs. While these did not cause a failure this time, corrosion on springs is a progressive risk to structural integrity and should be monitored for cracks or deep pitting.
