2018 Piaggio Vespa 0.1L Petrol · EX68 CSU

The 2018 Piaggio Vespa presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent DVLA test on 17 May 2024 at 2,113 miles which returned a pass with no defects recorded. Prior tests on 10 December 2022 at 1,584 miles and 11 September 2021 at 1,513 miles also passed cleanly. The vehicle shows no worsening faults, recurring advisories, or mechanical degradation across its three recorded examinations. The mileage pattern indicates extremely light use for an eight-year-old machine. Between September 2021 and December 2022 the scooter covered just 71 miles, then added 529 miles by May 2024. Annual average stands near 264 miles. Such low accumulation suggests prolonged standing periods rather than daily commuting. The MOT history is sparse but entirely clean, with no gaps exceeding roughly eighteen months between tests. A buyer should still inspect the scooter in person for issues low-mileage storage can mask. Long idle periods promote corrosion on brake discs, caliper seizure, and degraded suspension bushes or tyres through age rather than wear. The Vespa's small 2,113-mile record offers no flagged structural rust or exhaust emissions failures, yet standing moisture can compromise the frame and fork linkages unseen by the tester. Verify the condition of the battery, fuel system, and control cables during viewing. Confirm the front and rear brake operation is free from binding after storage. The clean MOT record implies previous owners avoided neglect of statutory testing, but physical inspection remains essential given the machine's dormant usage profile.
