2010 Aprilia Dorsoduro 0.8L Petrol · MX60 ATZ

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 25 April 2026 at 19 556 miles with no defects recorded, confirming current roadworthiness. The preceding test on 23 April 2025 also returned a pass at 18 385 miles, indicating a stable to improving maintenance trend after the series of failures logged in 2023. The 2023 failures—exhaust noise, missing rear reflector, incorrect registration plate size, headlamp aim issues and a rear brake pad mounting fault—were all resolved, as evidenced by the clean records thereafter. Mileage accumulation has been modest for a 16‑year‑old machine, averaging roughly 1 222 miles per year. The largest jumps occurred between April 2014 (8 712 miles) and April 2016 (12 539 miles) and again from 2023 to 2026, where the odometer rose from 16 249 miles to 19 556 miles. Periods such as 2018‑2020 show minimal increase, suggesting extended periods of inactivity. The low overall mileage reflects light use, though the uneven distribution hints at intermittent periods of higher activity. A prospective buyer should inspect the exhaust system for residual noise, verify that the rear reflector and registration plate meet size specifications, and check headlamp aim for both beam projection and height. Brake components merit close scrutiny—particularly pad condition and correct mounting—given the 2020 advisory on front pads and the 2023 rear pad issue. Tyre wear, especially the rear tyre noted as close to the legal limit in 2018, should be assessed, as should suspension bush condition and steering headbearing play observed in 2014. Finally, a thorough visual scan for corrosion or structural damage is advisable, despite the absence of rust entries in the MOT history.
