2018 Lexmoto Diablo 0.1L Petrol · LV68 ABO

The vehicle’s most recent MOT was recorded on 2024‑02‑23 at 9,761 miles, but the test failed due to a non‑functional stop lamp (4.3.1(a)(ii)). The preceding test on the same day showed no defects, indicating the fault was isolated and not a systemic issue. Overall, the maintenance trend is stable; there are no recurring mechanical or structural problems, and the mileage progression shows no signs of accelerating wear. Mileage accumulation has been modest for a five‑year‑old machine. The log shows 1,487 miles in March 2022, a rise to 6,304 miles by February 2023 (an increase of roughly 4,800 miles over ten months), and a further climb to 9,761 miles by February 2024 (about 3,460 miles in twelve months). This equates to roughly 1,220 miles per year, well below the average for its age class, suggesting light use or extended periods of storage. The intervals between tests are consistent, with roughly annual gaps, and no rapid mileage spikes are evident. A prospective buyer should verify the stop lamp circuit, checking the bulb, switch, and wiring for continuity. Suspension bushes and coil springs should be inspected for cracking or excessive wear, while brake discs and pads need a visual assessment for uneven wear or corrosion. Tyre tread depth should be measured across the width to confirm uniform wear, and the under‑body should be examined for rust or corrosion, especially around wheel arches and chassis mounts. Battery terminals and fluid levels (engine oil, coolant, brake fluid) must be checked, as low‑mileage vehicles can suffer from battery discharge or fluid degradation if stored for long periods.
