2002 Piaggio Vespa ET4 0.0L Petrol · KL02 CJO

The 2002 Piaggio Vespa ET4 presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 11 November 2025 at 22,389 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from 2022 to 2024 also passed cleanly. The single failure on 19 October 2023 at 21,387 miles is anomalous: the DVSA entry shows no defects recorded, indicating an administrative or presentation fault rather than a mechanical defect, with the machine immediately re-presented and passed the same day. Mileage accumulation is exceptionally low for a 24-year-old vehicle. The record shows 20,868 miles in November 2022, rising to 21,387 by October 2023, 21,734 by October 2024, and 22,389 by November 2025. That equates to roughly 655 miles per year across the documented period, well below typical use. Such low totals suggest extended standing periods, which on a scooter of this age raises the risk of perished rubber components, stale fuel system deposits, and seized brake calipers rather than worn drivetrain parts. No advisories or defects appear across the five entries, so the MOT record alone gives no signal of suspension bush wear, exhaust corrosion, or structural integrity loss. A buyer should still inspect the machine in person for age-related issues the test may not capture on a clean run. Check the front fork seals for weepage, the rear shock for damping loss, and the brake discs for pitting after standing. Confirm the tyres are not cracked from age despite low mileage, and verify the coil springs and frame welds for corrosion. The clean history implies a lightly used, reasonably kept example, but the 2023 same-day fail warrants a check of the V5 and test paperwork to rule out a clerical mismatch.
