AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2009 Alfa Romeo has 15 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 27,516 miles. This critical data anomaly makes the vehicle's true condition and maintenance history untrustworthy.

A 4-year MOT gap (Jul 2019–Dec 2023) means mileage during this period is unverified, raising serious concerns about the vehicle's true condition and maintenance.

Things to check

  • Critical 4-year MOT gap (Jul 2019–Dec 2023) with unverified mileage.
  • Recurring major failures in lights and emissions across multiple tests.
  • Persistent advisories for brakes, tyres, and suspension components.
  • Unresolved DANGEROUS defect for Nearside Front Lower Anti-roll bar linkage.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-12-27, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No mileage anomalies detected in the provided MOT history.
  • No recurring failures on the same system in the recent MOTs.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) for this model.
