This 2008 Alfa Romeo has 13 MOT tests on record with a 62% pass rate and 54,393 miles. While it has a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating, the pattern of issues suggests a higher risk of future maintenance costs.

Things to check

  • Recurring electrical failures (lights, wipers, position lamps) across multiple MOTs (2011, 2012, 2017, 2018).
  • High annual mileage (12,449 mi/yr) compared to UK average (8,000 mi/yr), indicating more wear.
  • MOT expired 2019-02-03; vehicle is currently on SORN with no active MOT.
  • Brake system issues (imbalanced 2011, efficiency 2011, 2012) and suspension failure (2017) show structural neglect.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates strong safety features.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the MOT history.
  • Consistent retesting and immediate repairs for failures, showing responsive ownership.
  • No major structural corrosion or dangerous defects flagged in the MOT history.
