Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a pass on October 20, 2025. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the failure earlier on that same day indicates a momentary lapse in pre-test inspections. The tester identified two dangerous defects, specifically an insecure nearside handlebar grip and an insecure nearside brake lever. These issues were rectified immediately to allow the retest pass, with no further mechanical advisories recorded in the final inspection. At a recorded mileage of 19,076 miles, this ten-year-old Honda has averaged approximately 1,908 miles per year. This low-mileage profile suggests the vehicle has spent significant periods stationary. The MOT history shows a consistent annual testing pattern between October 2022 and 2025, with no recorded mileage for the 2023-2024 period, indicating that the primary mechanical components have not been subjected to high-frequency wear during these intervals. A buyer should physically inspect the mechanical integrity of the handlebar and control assemblies to ensure the faults flagged in October 2025 have been permanently addressed. Given the low mileage, it is equally vital to check for perished rubber components, seized brake calipers, and fluid degradation that often results from long periods of disuse. While the record shows no structural corrosion or suspension failures, the low usage highlights the need to verify that the braking system and fastener tightness remain secure. Buying score: 72 Risk level: Low.

Our Verdict

A solid choice for urban commuting, provided the recent MOT failure is clarified. The consistent pass rate suggests a vehicle that has been used regularly and kept roadworthy.

When viewing this White Honda NSC, your primary task is to investigate the nature of the MOT failure recorded on 2025-10-20. While the record shows a failure at 19,076 miles, it immediately followed with a pass on the same day, suggesting a minor or easily rectifiable issue was addressed.

Ask the seller for documentation regarding what was repaired to clear that failure. Because this is a 49cc engine, check that the mechanical components are free from excessive wear, as these small engines often work harder in stop-start urban environments. Ensure all lights, indicators, and braking systems are functioning correctly, as these are common points of inspection.

Running costs for this 49.0cc Honda are expected to be very low, making it an economical option for short journeys. Fuel economy for this engine size is typically high, and the insurance group for a 50cc vehicle is generally among the lowest available, which is ideal for new riders or budget-conscious commuters.

Maintenance costs for Honda small-capacity engines are usually predictable, though you should budget for regular tyre replacements and chain maintenance. Annual running costs, including fuel, tax, and basic servicing, are estimated to be minimal.

Focus your inspection on the items that typically trigger MOT failures in small-capacity vehicles, such as tyre tread depth, brake pad wear, and light functionality. Although the 2025 MOT failure did not list specific defects in this data summary, it is vital to check the condition of the drive chain and sprockets.

Given the vehicle's age and mileage, inspect the white bodywork for any signs of impact or significant weathering. Check the tyres for age-related cracking, as rubber can perish even if tread remains, and ensure the braking system feels firm and responsive during a test ride.

This 2016 Honda NSC is a lightweight 49.0cc petrol model with a recorded mileage of 19,076 miles as of October 2025. The MOT history shows a consistent pattern of annual testing with no recorded defects in the four years prior to the 2025 failure. Given its age, the mileage appears to be consistent with typical usage for a small-capacity commuter vehicle.

There is no aggregate MOT data available to provide a specific reliability reputation for the Honda NSC model.
