2007 POR Apache 125 0.1L Petrol · WK57 AOV

This Apache 125 has maintained an exceptionally clean MOT record over the past four annual tests, with the most recent inspection on 16 June 2025 at 22,505 miles showing no defects or advisories. The consistent pass rate—including the 2024 and 2023 tests at 22,423 and 22,357 miles respectively—indicates stable mechanical condition and suggests the bike has been well preserved or used sparingly. There is no evidence of recurring issues, structural corrosion, or component failures in the official DVSA records, which is unusual for a 19-year-old vehicle of this type. The absence of even minor advisories points to either meticulous maintenance or very limited exposure to typical wear factors. The mileage progression reveals a striking pattern: just 1,184 miles per year over the past four tests, with only 382 miles added between June 2022 (22,123 miles) and June 2025 (22,505 miles). This suggests either infrequent use, long periods of storage, or potential odometer manipulation. While low mileage generally reduces wear on consumables like brakes and tyres, it also raises questions about whether critical components—such as seals, suspension bushes, or electrical systems—have been exercised enough to identify latent issues. The lack of mileage accumulation makes it difficult to assess natural degradation, so a buyer should treat this as a red flag for hidden neglect. Given the sparse MOT history, a prospective purchaser should prioritise a thorough pre-purchase inspection, particularly focusing on the suspension components—including fork seals, rear shock absorbers, and pivot bushes—for signs of drying out or degradation. The brakes should be tested for consistent pad thickness and disc condition, as static conditions can accelerate corrosion or binding. Electrical systems, such as the charging circuit and battery health, warrant close attention, as infrequent use may have allowed moisture ingress or weakened connections. Finally, inspect the frame and subframe for any signs of stress cracks or rust, especially around welds and mounting points, as these are often overlooked in low-mileage scenarios.
