APRILIA PEGASO 6502002 · 0.7L Petrol

The Aprilia Pegaso 650 holds a valid roadworthiness pass from the 25 October 2025 test at 23,788 miles, with the examiner recording no defects. The maintenance trend stays stable across the documented lifespan, as the only blemish is a failure on 11 October 2025 at 23,777 miles that also logged no faults. That anomaly, mirrored by a same-day fail and pass on 4 January 2019 at 21,013 miles, points to procedural or paperwork issues rather than mechanical decline. Previous owners appear to have kept the machine mechanically sound, though they encountered test administrative snags. Mileage pattern sits low for a 2002 vehicle. The odometer moved from 21,013 miles at the January 2019 test to 22,685 miles by June 2024, a gain of just 1,672 miles across five and a half years. From June 2024 to October 2025 the record added 1,103 miles. Such sparse accumulation signals extended periods of storage. The clean and sparse ledger offers little evidence of wear-driven intervention, yet long standing invites latent issues unseen by the tester. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection focused on age-related degradation not captured in the MOT. Standing tyres may show sidewall cracking despite adequate tread. Suspension bushes and linkage bearings on a 24-year-old chassis warrant close scrutiny for perishing or play. The buyer should examine brake calipers for binding after disuse and assess disc condition and fluid age. The frame and exhaust mounts demand checking for corrosion, particularly where road salt exposure occurred. The twin failures carrying no defect entries warrant a check of DVSA test reasons and vehicle documentation before purchase. Beyond that, the sparse ledger and low mileage imply light use and likely prolonged storage. The buyer should prioritise an in-person assessment of structural integrity and brake function, as these remain the chief risks for a machine of this age with limited running.
