2010 Alfa Romeo Mito 1.4L Petrol · SL10 YLX

The 2010 Alfa Romeo Mito's roadworthiness status appears stable, based on the most recent MOT test on 2023-09-07 at 75,790 miles. The vehicle passed this test with a minor advisory for the offside front service brake fluctuating, but not excessively. This suggests that while the vehicle is generally in a roadworthy condition, some minor issues persist. The recorded mileage of 75,790 miles over 16 years translates to approximately 4,737 miles per year, which is relatively low for a vehicle of its age. A review of the mileage history reveals a significant gap between 2021-08-08 (63,481 miles) and 2022-07-26 (67,619 miles), indicating the vehicle may have been subject to lighter use or possibly stored for a period. The mileage accumulation rate then increased, with 8,170 miles added in just over a year. The MOT history highlights recurring issues with suspension components, which have shown corrosion on multiple test dates, including 2022-07-26 and 2022-07-22. Furthermore, brake-related faults have appeared, such as rear brake pads less than 1.5 mm thick on 2023-08-30 and offside front service brake fluctuation on both 2023-09-07 and 2023-08-30. A buyer should inspect the suspension components, brake pads, and discs in person to assess their condition and determine if any necessary repairs are required. Additionally, the seat belt retracting mechanism has been flagged as defective on two occasions, which should also be checked. The presence of advisories and faults related to suspension bushes, exhaust corrosion, and tyre condition on various test dates suggests that the vehicle has experienced typical wear and tear for its age. However, these issues do not appear to be escalating significantly, indicating that the vehicle's maintenance trend is relatively stable. A thorough inspection by a qualified mechanic is still recommended to confirm the vehicle's current condition and identify any potential risks or necessary repairs.
