2010 Lexmoto Tommy 125 0.1L Petrol · PO60 ELX

The 2010 Lexmoto Tommy 125 presents a clean and stable maintenance trend, with the most recent MOT on 28 October 2025 at 22,536 miles passing with zero defects recorded. The vehicle has consistently passed its annual tests without advisories or failures since at least September 2022, indicating no recurring mechanical or structural defects. The maintenance record is unbroken and straightforward, showing no worsening or emerging fault pattern across the available history. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a machine of this age. Between the September 2022 test at 13,145 miles and the October 2025 test at 22,536 miles, the scooter covered approximately 9,391 miles over three years, averaging roughly 3,130 miles per annum during that period. However, the jump from 19,417 miles in September 2024 to 22,536 miles in October 2025 accounts for 3,119 miles in just over twelve months, which is consistent with a step up in regular use. The overall lifetime average of approximately 1,408 miles per year remains well below typical annual mileage for a 125cc commuter, suggesting extended periods of light use or standing. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer should carry out a thorough in-person inspection focused on components that deteriorate with age and low mileage rather than wear. Tyres, brake seals, and fuel system components can degrade through dormancy, particularly if the scooter has sat unused for long stretches between tests. The front fork stanchions, swingarm pivot bearings, and headset bearings should be checked for smooth operation and free play, as infrequent use can lead to surface corrosion or brinelling in these areas. The exhaust system and mounting points deserve close attention for corrosion, especially around welds and the silencer end can, where moisture tends to accumulate on low-mileage machines. The braking system, including caliper pistons and cable-operated linkages, should be tested for free movement and return, since infrequent use can cause sticking that a brief MOT road test may not reveal. Suspension operation, chain tension, and sprocket condition should also be verified, as the Tommy 125 uses a chain final drive that requires regular lubrication and adjustment. The clean MOT history is encouraging, but age-related deterioration on a low-mileage scooter can be just as significant as high-mileage wear, and a hands-on inspection remains essential before purchase.
