2014 Alfa Romeo Giulietta 1.4L Petrol · R22 MDB

The 2014 Alfa Romeo Giulietta is currently roadworthy, with the most recent MOT on 2025-10-02 at 71,317 miles recording a pass and no defects. However, the vehicle’s history shows two consecutive failures in 2025-09-19 (71,298 miles) and 2023-09-20 (64,669 miles), both without recorded defects. These failures suggest potential issues with compliance or minor non-urgent faults that were resolved prior to the latest pass. The absence of structural or mechanical failures in the subsequent test indicates a stable maintenance trend, though the pattern of repeated failures without clear defect documentation raises questions about the consistency of previous inspections. The vehicle’s mileage of 71,317 miles over 12 years equates to approximately 5,943 miles annually, a low figure that may reflect infrequent use or extended periods of inactivity. The MOT records show a consistent interval of roughly 12 months between tests, with the most recent at 71,317 miles. Notably, the 2024-09-17 test at 67,330 miles and the 2023-09-22 test at 64,669 miles suggest a gradual increase in mileage, though the lack of detailed defect reports limits insight into wear patterns. The sparse data implies either meticulous maintenance or potential gaps in inspection thoroughness. A buyer should prioritise checking the suspension system, particularly suspension bushes and coil springs, which can degrade during periods of inactivity. The absence of brake-related defects in recent tests is reassuring, but visual inspection of brake discs and calipers for corrosion or binding is advised. Structural integrity should also be verified, as low mileage does not preclude rust or corrosion in critical areas. While the MOT history shows no immediate risks, the vehicle’s maintenance pattern warrants a hands-on assessment to confirm the absence of hidden issues.
