2017 Alfa Romeo Giulia 2.1L Diesel · YY67 FDP

The Alfa Romeo Giulia presents a fully clean MOT record with zero advisories or failures across all five documented tests. The most recent examination, conducted on 28 May 2026 at 102,730 miles, passed with no defects whatsoever. This pattern of consecutive clean passes — spanning from June 2022 through May 2026 — indicates a stable and consistently maintained vehicle with no recurring mechanical or structural deterioration flagged by any tester over a four-year window. The mileage accumulation tells a coherent story. The car has covered approximately 58,700 miles over the five recorded test intervals, averaging roughly 11,700 miles per year, which sits squarely within typical usage for a nine-year-old vehicle. The intervals between tests show steady, incremental accumulation: 14,967 miles between June 2022 and June 2023, 17,560 miles between June 2023 and June 2024, 14,175 miles between June 2024 and June 2025, and 11,992 miles in the most recent year leading to May 2026. There are no suspicious gaps or sudden spikes that would suggest long periods of disuse, clocking, or aggressive high-mileage use compressed into short windows. The MOT record itself is complete and well-documented, with no missing years. Despite the clean paper record, a prospective buyer should still carry out a thorough physical inspection. At over 102,000 miles, consumable components such as brake discs, pads, suspension bushes, and coil springs will have experienced significant cycling regardless of test outcomes. The Giulia's rear suspension in particular is known to develop wear in the trailing arm bushes and anti-roll bar links over time, issues that may not always trigger an MOT advisory until advanced. Underbody corrosion around the subframes and suspension mounting points warrants close visual examination, especially if the car has spent time in regions using road salt. A test drive should focus on any binding sensation from the rear calipers, uneven brake disc scoring, or knocking from the front suspension over sharp bumps. The 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol unit should be checked for smooth boost delivery and any signs of oil weeping around the turbocharger area. Clean MOT records confirm baseline roadworthiness, but they do not substitute for hands-on assessment of a performance saloon that has covered over 100,000 miles.
