2014 Alfa Romeo Giulietta 1.4L Petrol · YS14 ARF

The 2014 Alfa Romeo Giulietta presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a notably clean bill of health at its most recent MOT on 12 January 2026 at 90,224 miles. That pass came with zero defects or advisories, a significant turnaround from the recurring rear brake disc issues flagged in previous years. The record suggests the previous owner addressed the braking system properly rather than deferring repairs. This is a positive indicator of responsible ownership in the vehicle's recent past. The mileage accumulation is consistent and unremarkable for a twelve-year-old car, averaging roughly 7,519 miles per year. The intervals between tests show steady use: the car covered 10,922 miles between February 2024 and January 2026, and 10,475 miles between February 2023 and February 2024. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes that would suggest long periods of disuse or odometer irregularities. The vehicle appears to have been driven regularly, which is generally preferable for preventing the kind of seizure and deterioration that afflicts cars left standing. The recurring advisory for worn, pitted, or scored rear brake discs appeared in both the January 2022 test at 49,766 miles and the February 2024 test at 68,827 miles. The fact that this defect did not reappear in the January 2026 test indicates the rear braking components were replaced or properly remedied sometime after early 2024. A buyer should still inspect the rear brake discs and pads in person to confirm the quality of that repair work and check for uneven wear or binding calipers, which are common on this model. The front tyre wear noted in the February 2023 test at 58,482 miles points to a historical issue with wheel alignment or suspension geometry, likely worn suspension bushes or tracking misalignment. Given the age and mileage, a thorough inspection of the front suspension, including drop links, track rod ends, and wishbone bushes, is advisable before purchase.
