2009 Alfa Romeo GT 1.9L Diesel · WV59 FZT

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive ownership style. The most recent test in February 2026 at 101,469 miles resulted in a failure due to a nearside headlamp malfunction and alignment issue, which was rectified within twenty-four hours to secure a pass. While the vehicle has passed its last three tests, the recurring presence of minor equipment failures suggests that the owner only addresses faults when they threaten an inspection pass. At 17 years old, the recorded mileage of 101,479 miles represents a low average of approximately 6,000 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage over recent years, with 7,185 miles covered between August 2022 and March 2025, and another 5,425 miles between March 2025 and February 2026. This low mileage often masks mechanical wear on the drivetrain but can lead to the degradation of rubber components, seals, and suspension bushings due to age and oxidation rather than distance travelled. A buyer must physically inspect the cooling system, as a coolant leak was specifically flagged in August 2022 at 83,869 miles. Given the age of the Alfa Romeo, the water pump and associated hoses should be checked for brittleness or weeping. The recurring advisories for uneven tyre wear in 2022 and 2025 indicate potential wheel alignment issues or worn suspension components, which necessitates a thorough check of the control arms, ball joints, and shock absorbers. Furthermore, an underbody inspection is essential to check for structural corrosion on the sills and wheel arches, as these are common points of failure for this model's age.
