2012 Alfa Romeo Giulietta 1.4L Petrol · WV12 AED

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2024-09-26 at 155,331 miles resulted in a failure, though no defects were recorded. This aligns with a pattern of inconsistent testing outcomes over the past two years, including a 2023-09-25 pass and a 2023-09-23 failure at the same mileage, suggesting potential administrative or procedural anomalies. The lack of recorded defects in these tests implies no critical mechanical or safety issues were identified, but the repeated failures without explanation raise questions about the car’s maintenance consistency. The roadworthiness status remains uncertain, with no clear evidence of deterioration or improvement in the tested components. The vehicle’s mileage of 155,331 miles at 14 years old equates to an average of 11,095 miles annually, which is typical for its age. MOT records show annual testing intervals with steady mileage progression, indicating regular use rather than prolonged inactivity. However, the 2022-08-26 tests—both a pass and a failure at 119,673 miles—highlight irregularities in the inspection process. These gaps in defect reporting limit the ability to assess long-term wear trends, though the absence of structural or emission-related issues in the records suggests no immediate risk to the chassis or engine. A buyer should prioritize a hands-on inspection of the suspension system, particularly suspension bushes and coil springs, which are common failure points in Alfa Giuliettas of this era. The repeated MOT failures, despite no recorded defects, warrant scrutiny of brake components for binding calipers or uneven disc wear, as well as the exhaust system for corrosion. While the MOT history lacks specific mechanical warnings, the vehicle’s high mileage and inconsistent testing outcomes justify a thorough assessment of body corrosion and underbody integrity, which are not covered in the provided data.
