This 2002 Alfa Romeo has 16 MOT tests on record with a 81% pass rate and 75,498 miles. The vehicle has been off the road since 2018, with no recent MOT or service history.
The vehicle shows a suspiciously low mileage of 75 miles in 2002, followed by a normal 7,250 miles/year average from 2018 onwards, indicating a significant data anomaly.
Things to check
- 2007-05-26 FAILED MOT: Multiple severe brake and suspension failures (binding, uneven application, juddering).
- 2007-05-26 FAILED MOT: Offside front position lamp(s) not working and parking brake issues.
- 2018-07-23 PASSED MOT: First and only valid MOT in 24 years, with no subsequent tests.
- MILEAGE ANOMALY: Suspiciously low mileage (75 mi) recorded before 2018, inconsistent with later usage.
Working in its favour
- 2018-07-23 PASSED MOT: Single clean pass with no recorded failures or advisories.
- Euro NCAP: 5/5 stars (2017) — indicates a strong safety rating for its era.
- No recent MOT failures: The single 2018 pass is a positive, though it's the only one.
- Consistent mileage: Once past the initial anomaly, the vehicle shows normal annual usage.
