2016 Yamaha XC 0.1L Petrol · EN16 AFY

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness trend with a clean bill of health in its most recent test on 18 December 2023 at 9,631 miles. This pass recorded no defects or advisories, suggesting the scooter is currently in a sound mechanical state. The history shows a consistent pattern of passing tests without major failures, indicating a vehicle that has avoided significant structural or mechanical degradation. The mileage is exceptionally low for a ten year old machine, averaging under 1,000 miles per year. The record shows very little use in the first few years, moving from 39 miles in May 2019 to 825 miles by December 2020. A more noticeable increase in usage occurred between November 2022 and December 2023, where the odometer climbed from 6,818 to 9,631 miles. This shift suggests the vehicle transitioned from long periods of standing to more regular use in its later years. A buyer should focus on components affected by inactivity rather than wear. The November 2022 test flagged a rear tyre worn close to the legal limit, which is a common consumable issue but worth verifying against current tread depth. Because the vehicle has spent significant time stationary, check for perished rubber seals, cracked tyres, and potential corrosion on the chassis or exhaust. Inspect the braking system for signs of seizing or binding calipers, as low-use vehicles often suffer from stagnant brake fluid and sticking pistons. Verify that the battery holds a steady charge and check the oil condition to ensure it has not degraded during periods of dormancy. The lack of recurring mechanical faults in the MOT record is positive, but the low mileage necessitates a physical check for age-related deterioration of the suspension and fluid systems.
