2015 Bamby Schmitt 125 0.1L Petrol · DX15 HZU

The vehicle currently holds an unroadworthy status following a failure in its most recent test on October 23, 2025. While previous tests indicated a clean record, the latest inspection revealed a significant electrical failure across multiple lighting systems. The tester flagged total failure of the direction indicators, rear position lamps, stop lamps, and the main beam headlamp. This trend suggests a lack of basic pre-inspection checks by the previous owner rather than a progressive mechanical degradation. The mileage profile is atypically low for an eleven-year-old vehicle, with only 1,379 miles recorded. There is a notable discrepancy between the 2018 test at 6,813 miles and the 2019 test which recorded only 1,189 miles, suggesting a potential odometer rollback or a recording error. Since 2022, the vehicle has covered fewer than 80 miles annually. While this low usage minimizes wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, it increases risks associated with prolonged stationary storage, particularly regarding seals, rubber hoses, and tyres that may have perished due to lack of movement. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the electrical system to determine if the recent failures are simply blown bulbs or a deeper wiring loom issue caused by corrosion. Given the low mileage, the physical inspection should focus on brake discs for flat spots or surface pitting, which frequently occur when vehicles sit for long periods. The structural integrity should be checked for age-related rust, as low-mileage status does not protect metal from environmental oxidation over a decade.
