Kymco Agility (2009)
2009 Kymco Agility
CarHunch analysed 495 real MOT records for the 2009 Kymco Agility. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
The 2009 KYMCO AGILITY has a first-time MOT pass rate of 71.3%, which is 8.7 percentage points below the UK average of 80%, suggesting these scooters need more attention to maintenance than typical vehicles. With 10.7% of vehicles ever having a dangerous defect recorded, there's a meaningful safety concern that prospective buyers should take seriously.
At an average mileage of 12,390 miles for a 15-year-old scooter, these have been gently ridden, yet they're still accumulating 0.78 failures per test and 2.6 advisories, pointing to durability issues rather than hard use. Before buying one, get a pre-purchase inspection focused on brake condition and structural integrity, as the failure rate suggests wear problems are common even on low-mileage examples.
What to check before buying a 2009 Kymco Agility
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
