Our Verdict
A recommended purchase for those seeking a simple, low-mileage city commuter. The consistent MOT pass record and very low overall mileage make this 2007 Piaggio Zip an attractive option.
Focus your attention on the service history rather than the MOT, as the low mileage suggests the vehicle may have spent long periods stationary. Ensure the fuel system has been maintained and the battery is healthy, as these are common points of failure for lightly used scooters.
Negotiate based on the age of the tyres and consumables. Even with low mileage, rubber components perish over time; check if the tyres have been replaced since 2007 to avoid immediate post-purchase costs.
Running costs for this 49cc petrol engine are among the lowest available in the UK. Fuel consumption is minimal, and the vehicle falls into a very low insurance group, making it ideal for new riders or as a secondary vehicle.
Annual costs are kept low by the small engine size and simple mechanical layout. Maintenance is generally limited to basic oil changes and belt inspections, keeping the upkeep predictable and affordable.
While the MOT history shows no recorded defects, you should still physically inspect the brake cables and tyre tread depth, as these are the most common wear items on 50cc scooters. Check for any signs of corrosion on the frame, particularly if it has been stored in a damp environment.
Verify the smooth operation of the electric start and check for any leaks around the engine casing. Given the 2007 vintage, ensure all lights and indicators are functioning correctly, despite the clean MOT record.
This blue 49cc Piaggio Zip is in an exceptional state of preservation for its age, recording only 4,605 miles since 2007. Its MOT history is remarkably clean, with no recorded defects across the last three years of testing. Given the low usage, it represents a strong value proposition for a lightweight urban runabout.
Aggregate data is unavailable for this specific model, but the individual history of this vehicle suggests a reliable ownership experience.
