2016 Yamaha XC 0.1L Petrol · AD16 AEC

The Yamaha XC presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent test on 21 August 2024 at 45,887 miles where the tester recorded no defects. Prior to that, the 3 August 2023 examination at 42,223 miles also passed clean. The vehicle shows no escalating faults across its record. Recorded mileage sits at 45,887 against a 2016 build, averaging roughly 4,589 miles per year. This is low for the age and implies light use or extended standing periods. The DVSA log jumps from 36,755 miles on 4 August 2022 to 42,166 miles on 2 August 2023, a modest 5,411-mile gain, then to 42,223 the next day. The data is sparse but clean apart from two same-day failures in 2022 and 2023 that list no defects, suggesting administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical rejection. A buyer should still verify in person that no corrosion affects the frame or suspension mounting points, given the low use and possible outdoor storage. The clean advisories mean no worn brake discs, perished bushes, or exhaust leaks were flagged, but standing vehicles often develop seized calipers or flat-spotted tyres unseen by the MOT. Inspect the chain, sprockets, and fork seals for degradation from inactivity. Confirm the battery and lighting function, as intermittent use can mask electrical faults. The history implies a carefully stored machine, yet physical checks remain essential before purchase.
