2018 Lexmoto Valiant 0.1L Petrol · LC67 AMU

The Lexmoto Valiant has maintained a clean MOT history with no defects recorded across all tests, including the most recent pass on 11 April 2025—just three months shy of the current date. This suggests a consistent absence of major mechanical or structural failings, though the record’s brevity means no advisories or recurring issues have been logged to indicate wear patterns. The final pass at 19,223 miles aligns with the vehicle’s current mileage, implying no intervening repairs or modifications were required since then. However, the lack of advisories or warnings in the latest test means critical components like suspension bushes, coil springs, or binding calipers were not flagged as requiring attention. The mileage progression reveals an unusually low annual average of approximately 2,400 miles over eight years, with a notable gap between the 2022 test at 13,885 miles and the 2023 tests at around 19,094–19,095 miles—a span of 17 months with minimal movement. This suggests the vehicle may have been stored or lightly used during that period, which could either preserve components or introduce issues like stagnant fluids or degraded seals. The double MOT entry in August 2023 (pass at 19,095 miles, fail at 19,094) is unusual but may reflect a technicality rather than a mechanical fault, as no defects were recorded in either instance. Given the absence of advisories or failures, a buyer should prioritise an in-person inspection of high-wear items that aren’t captured in MOT tests, such as the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs—critical for ride quality and handling—along with the brake discs and calipers for uneven wear or corrosion. The low mileage also warrants checking for signs of prolonged storage, including battery health, fuel system integrity, and any potential corrosion in underbody components or wheel arches. While the MOT record offers no red flags, these areas are where deferred maintenance could manifest over time.
