2015 Alfa Romeo Giulietta 1.4L Petrol · YA64 VPM

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear trend of improving maintenance standards. Following a significant failure in September 2022, the car has passed its last three annual MOT tests without a single defect or advisory being recorded. The most recent test conducted on 30 September 2025 at 55,060 miles indicates the vehicle currently meets all minimum safety requirements with no outstanding faults. At 55,060 miles over eleven years, this Alfa Romeo reflects a significantly low average usage pattern of approximately 5,000 miles per annum. The data shows consistent but light use, with roughly 6,000 miles covered between the 2023 and 2024 tests and another 1,400 miles between the 2024 and 2025 tests. This low mileage suggests the vehicle has not endured heavy mechanical stress, though it increases the likelihood of rubber components degrading if the car has sat stationary for extended periods. A physical inspection should focus on the suspension and braking components that previously showed signs of wear. The September 2022 failure highlighted excessive wear on both front suspension arm bushes and thin front brake pads, while the 2023 test identified a corroded nearside rear coil spring. Although these appear to have been rectified, a buyer should verify the absence of play in the rubber bushings and check the rear springs for further signs of surface corrosion. Given the low mileage and previous tyre perishing noted in 2022, the current tyres should be inspected closely for sidewall cracking or age-related hardening regardless of the remaining tread depth.
