2016 Piaggio Vespa 0.0L Petrol · WV66 NPU

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status with a consistent history of passes over the last five years. The most recent inspection conducted on 21 October 2025 at 1,479 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates that the mechanical and safety components met the minimum legal requirements at that time. The lack of recurring faults across the recorded history suggests that the previous owner has maintained the vehicle to basic standards. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old scooter, averaging approximately 148 miles per year. Between September 2021 and October 2025, the vehicle covered only 96 miles, moving from 1,383 miles to 1,479 miles. This extremely low usage suggests the Vespa has sat for long periods rather than being used regularly. While this limits the wear on the drivetrain, brake pads, and tyres, it introduces risks associated with stagnation and fluid degradation that an MOT test may not fully capture. A buyer must perform a physical inspection focused on components affected by long-term storage rather than mileage. Check the tyres for flat spots or perished sidewalls, as rubber hardens over time despite low tread depth. Examine the brake discs for corrosion and ensure the brake fluid has not absorbed excessive moisture. It is also vital to inspect the fuel system for varnish degradation and check the suspension seals for leaks, as these elements often fail when a vehicle remains stationary for extended months.
