2012 Alfa Romeo Giulietta 2.0L Diesel · WR61 SWU

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status, following a clean pass in its most recent annual inspection. The latest test conducted on 26 July 2025 at 139,167 miles recorded no defects, indicating that the previous owner addressed the mechanical issues identified in earlier years. This represents a significant improvement over the June 2024 failure period, where the car failed due to non-conforming registration plates, lighting failures, and obstructed seat belt inspections. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 14-year-old vehicle averaging approximately 10,000 miles per year. The record shows steady usage, moving from 100,150 miles in June 2022 to 139,167 miles by mid-2025. There are no unexplained gaps of inactivity that would suggest long-term storage, though the accumulation of nearly 40,000 miles between the 2022 and 2025 tests places standard demand on wear-related components and the drivetrain system. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the rear suspension and braking system based on recurring issues. The June 2023 test flagged corroded rear coil springs and pitted rear brake discs, following a binding nearside rear caliper noted in 2022. While the 2025 pass suggests these were serviced, history of corrosion and brake wear indicates these areas are prone to degradation. Additionally, the non-excessive oil leak noted in 2023 warrants a close look under the engine to ensure the leak has not worsened since the last inspection.
