2014 Alfa Romeo Mito 1.6L Diesel · YA14 EXG

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT on 28 July 2025 at 102,569 miles. While the record shows an initial failure on that same date, the subsequent pass indicates the owner addressed any identified defects immediately to meet legal standards. The trend suggests a proactive maintenance approach over the last two years, with no recurring mechanical failures or structural advisories documented across the last three testing cycles. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 8,500 miles per year. There is a notable gap of 15,000 miles between the July 2023 test at 80,024 miles and the August 2024 test at 95,064 miles, followed by another 7,500 miles leading into the final test. This regular use suggests the car has been driven consistently rather than left stationary for long periods, which generally helps prevent brake corrosion and fluid-related issues in the drivetrain and suspension. Despite the clean nature of the recent MOT results, a buyer should still perform a physical inspection of common Alfa Romeo points of wear that are not captured by the DVSA testing. Focus on the front suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of fatigue, as these often degrade at this mileage bracket. Given the vehicle has surpassed the 100,000-mile mark, verify the condition of the rubber belt and check the brake discs for uneven wear or thinning, as the MOT only tests for functional efficiency rather than overall component health.
