2015 Alfa Romeo Giulietta 2.0L Diesel · WR15 OLT

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a trend of reactive rather than proactive ownership. While it passed its most recent test in November 2025 at 72,767 miles, it had failed just one mile prior due to critical safety defects. The record shows a recurring pattern where components are only addressed once they reach a failure threshold, suggesting that the owner defers routine maintenance until the MOT test demands a repair. At 72,767 miles, the eleven-year-old Alfa Romeo averages approximately 6,600 miles per year, which is consistent with low-use-use patterns. The mileage progression is steady, with roughly 10,000 miles covered between the 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 6,400 miles between late 2024 and 2025. This consistent low mileage generally reduces mechanical strain on the drivetrain, yet the frequent failures indicate that rubber and rubber parts are being neglected despite the low distance driven. A buyer must pay close attention to the front braking system, as the tester flagged thin pads and pitted, scored discs in both 2024 and 2025. This indicates the components are likely nearing the end of their service life again. The MOT history also highlights persistent issues with uneven tyre wear, specifically inner-edge thinning on multiple axles, which strongly points to incorrect wheel alignment or worn suspension bushes that remain unaddressed across several years. Physical inspection is required for the offside front road wheel, which was noted as distorted in the November 2025 test. The anti-roll bar linkage was recently replaced to rectify a torn dust cover, but the surrounding suspension components should be checked for signs of play or failure. Additionally, the nearside rear seat belt has been flagged as damaged since 2023, and the buyer should ensure the webbing has been replaced to meet safety standards, as this remains a recurring advisory.
