2018 Lexmoto FMR 0.1L Petrol · WJ18 OZA

This vehicle’s most recent MOT test on 2023-03-28 at just 1,117 miles confirms it remains roadworthy, with no defects recorded across two consecutive tests. The absence of advisories or failings suggests no recurring mechanical issues have been overlooked, though the extreme low mileage—140 miles annually—raises questions about storage conditions or usage patterns. The stable pass history implies consistent compliance with MOT standards, but the lack of intermediate tests between 2022-02-22 and 2023-03-28 means there is no evidence of maintenance between those dates. The recorded mileage of 1,117 miles over eight years is exceptionally low, averaging just 140 miles per year, which is atypical for a vehicle of this age. This suggests prolonged periods of inactivity, potentially exposing components to environmental factors like moisture or pests. The gap between tests—just 11 months—is unusually short for such low mileage, which could indicate the vehicle was only tested when required rather than for regular servicing. Buyers should consider whether the vehicle has been stored properly, as prolonged immobility can accelerate wear on tyres, suspension seals, and battery health. Given the lack of faults in the MOT history, no critical structural or mechanical issues have been formally identified. However, the low mileage and extended periods of inactivity warrant a thorough inspection of suspension bushes and coil springs for degradation, as well as brake calipers and discs for binding or corrosion. The battery should be tested for capacity, given the risk of sulphation from prolonged disuse. Tyre tread depth and lateral wear patterns should also be checked, as even low-mileage vehicles can develop uneven wear from improper storage. The absence of advisories does not guarantee all potential issues have been addressed, particularly in areas not routinely tested under MOT regulations.
