AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 1982 Lambretta LI 125 passed its most recent MOT on 9 June 2022 at 37 miles with no defects recorded, leaving its maintenance trend stable and unremarkable across the sole available test entry. The four-year gap to today's date of 8 July 2026 means the current roadworthiness cannot be confirmed by a live test, yet the last inspection showed no advisories on brakes, suspension, or structural integrity. Recorded mileage sits at just 37 miles against 44 years of age, equating to roughly one mile per year. The single 2022 test at 37 miles mirrors the lifetime total, so no rapid accumulation or usage gaps appear in the data beyond the obvious long-term dormancy. With only one clean MOT on file, the history is sparse but free of consumable wear flags such as tyres or wiper blades. A buyer should physically verify the machine given its standing history and expired test status. Long storage invites perished rubber components, seized cables, and internal corrosion in the fuel system or exhaust that a static record will not reveal. The tester logged no structural rust in 2022, but a 44-year-old Italian scooter demands close checks to floor pans, frame joints, and suspension bushes for age-related decay. Confirm brake caliper freedom, clutch operation, and tyre sidewall condition before road use. The absent advisories suggest a careful prior keeper, yet four years idle outweighs that clean sheet. A fresh MOT and workshop inspection remain essential before purchase.
