YAMAHA NXC1252008 · 0.1L Petrol

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 17 September 2025 with 6,022 miles. The maintenance trend appears remarkably stable despite a brief failure recorded just five days prior at 6,021 miles. Since no specific defects were listed for that failed entry, it likely represented an administrative error or a minor presentation issue that was rectified immediately, rather than a systemic mechanical failure or recurring structural weakness. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an 18-year-old scooter, averaging approximately 335 miles per year. There is a significant three-year gap between the May 2022 and the September 2025 tests, during which only 21 miles were recorded. This indicates the vehicle has sat for long periods. While the low mileage reduces the mechanical wear on the engine and brake friction surfaces, it increases the risk of age-related degradation in rubber components that an MOT does not fully capture. A buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of components that suffer from long stationary periods rather than mileage. Inspect the tyres for sidewall cracking and flat spots, as rubber perish over time regardless of tread depth. Check the fuel lines and seals for signs of perished rubber or leaks, and ensure the brake calipers are not seized from inactivity. Additionally, examine the frame and suspension for corrosion, as low-mileage vehicles can still hide structural rust if stored in damp environments.
