2009 Piaggio Vespa S 125 0.1L Petrol · LJ09 RMY

The 2009 Piaggio Vespa S 125 presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent test on 27 September 2025 at 15,887 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of annual passes since at least 2021. The maintenance trend shows no worsening faults, advisories, or recurring mechanical concerns across the five-year DVSA history provided. At roughly 17 years old the machine shows 15,887 recorded miles, an average of about 935 miles per year. The records expose an unusual plateau: the 2021 test at 17,174 miles was followed by three consecutive passes at 14,174 miles in 2022, 2023 and 2024, before the 2025 reading climbed to 15,887. That 3,000-mile drop then partial recovery suggests the scooter stood unused for extended periods or that an odometer or recording anomaly exists. Low annual use of this kind typically limits wear on drivetrain and suspension bushes but raises the risk of perished seals, flat-spotted tyres, and corrosion from static storage. No tester flagged brake discs, binding calipers, coil springs, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity issues at any point. The absence of advisories means the documented history alone gives no cause for alarm on consumables or chassis condition. A buyer should still view the scooter in person given the long static intervals implied by the mileage. Check the tyres for sidewall cracking and flat spots from standing, inspect the front suspension linkage and rear shock for weepage, and confirm the exhaust and frame joints are free of rust. Verify the odometer reading against the 14,174-mile plateau to rule out a recording fault before purchase.
