Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The Alfa Romeo Stelvio currently holds a valid MOT, having passed its most recent test on 8 September 2025 with no defects or advisories recorded. The roadworthiness trend across the available history is stable, with the vehicle securing passes at consecutive annual tests in September 2024 and September 2025. One failure was recorded at the August 2023 test, but no defect details were captured in the supplied data; the vehicle subsequently passed an MOT on the same date, indicating the issues were rectified promptly to allow re-presentation and compliance. With no recurring advisories on suspension, braking, corrosion, or structural integrity visible across the five recorded tests, the documented record is relatively clean, though MOT outcomes alone do not confirm the overall mechanical condition of the vehicle. Annual mileage accumulation is moderate for an eight-year-old vehicle. The car covered roughly 6,720 miles per year on average, a usage rate that is broadly typical for its age. The MOT entries are spaced at consistent yearly intervals from August 2022 through September 2025, which aligns with the annual testing cycle and suggests regular driving activity rather than extended periods of standing. No significant gaps in testing or sudden mileage jumps appear in the data, indicating a steady pattern of use over the recorded period. Given that the failure in 2023 lacks recorded defect information, a prospective buyer should request the original MOT refusal sheet or repair documentation to identify which components were addressed. A physical inspection should prioritise the brake system, including calliper operation and disc condition, as binding components are a common advisories-related issue on used vehicles and would not necessarily appear in this particular record. The suspension, including coil springs, bushes, and dampers, should be examined for wear consistent with the recorded mileage, alongside a thorough check of the underbody and structural areas for corrosion, particularly around wheel arches and subframe mounting points. Tyres, exhaust integrity, and fluid levels should also be assessed in person, as MOT testing does not cover engine or transmission health. Editor insight: buying score 72, risk level Low. The record shows three consecutive passes with no advisories and no structural or brake-related flags, supporting a low-risk classification.
