2007 Alfa Romeo 159 1.9L Diesel · RV07 LJO

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT in November 2025, but the history reveals a concerning downward trend in overall condition. While it is currently roadworthy, there is a clear pattern of escalating deterioration regarding the chassis and running gear. The primary risk is widespread corrosion. Recent entries highlight corroded outer sills and various suspension components. Because these issues have persisted and expanded across multiple years, the structural integrity is a growing concern. The mechanical history shows a significant spike in failures in late 2024, specifically regarding the braking system. The car failed on thin brake pads, worn and pitted discs, and a failing parking brake. While these were rectified to pass, they indicate a period of neglected maintenance. The mileage is typical for a vehicle of this age, suggesting consistent use. This means you should expect standard wear on the drivetrain and consumables, but it also confirms the car has not suffered from the specific degradation associated with long periods of standing.
