2015 Piaggio Vespa 0.1L Petrol · LF15 OGP

The 2015 Piaggio Vespa presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent MOT test on 5 July 2025 at 1,361 miles which recorded no defects. Prior tests on 19 February 2024 at 1,211 miles, 22 February 2023 at 1,178 miles, and 6 March 2021 at 990 miles all passed cleanly with no advisories. The vehicle shows no worsening mechanical faults across the four-year recorded span. The mileage pattern reflects extremely light use for an eleven-year-old machine. From the March 2021 test at 990 miles to July 2025 at 1,361 miles, the scooter covered just 371 miles, averaging under 100 miles per year. A gap exists between the 2021 and 2023 tests where no record appears, but the low accumulated distance suggests prolonged storage rather than active neglect. The clean history offers no evidence of skipped consumable replacement through failure. A buyer should still inspect the scooter in person for issues low-mileage, long-dormant machines develop despite passing tests. Standing periods degrade tyres, brake hoses, and fork seals even without mileage wear. The tester noted no corrosion or structural concerns, yet pitting on brake discs from inactivity and hardened suspension bushes remain plausible. Verify the exhaust emissions and idle behaviour on a cold start. Given the absent advisories across all entries, previous owners likely maintained basic statutory compliance if not frequent use. The record implies careful, minimal running rather than deferred upkeep. A pre-purchase check of the CVT drivetrain and electrical system is warranted given the sparse annual activity.
