Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2022 Lexmoto Cl 125 T?

Yes. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. A full MOT history analysis will highlight patterns that a single test result won't reveal.

What corrosion should I look for when inspecting a 2022 Lexmoto Cl 125 T?

Check brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that is expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.

How are tyres and brakes typically on a 2022 Lexmoto Cl 125 T?

Tyres and brakes are the most common advisory items on vehicles of this age. Budget for replacement if they are near the limit, and factor this into your offer price.

Do I need an HPI check when buying a 2022 Lexmoto Cl 125 T?

Yes. The MOT history will not show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status. An HPI check covers these areas and should be part of any used car purchase.

2022 Lexmoto Cl 125 T

CarHunch analysed 192 real MOT records for the 2022 Lexmoto Cl 125 T. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

The 2022 Lexmoto CL 125 T has a first-time MOT pass rate of just 46.4%, well below the UK average of 80%, which signals real reliability concerns for prospective buyers. While dangerous defects affect fewer than one in ten vehicles (7.8%), the low pass rate means most owners will face some repair work before their next test.

At an average mileage of 8,648 miles for a two-year-old bike, these machines are running relatively high, yet still accumulating 0.7 advisories per vehicle on average—suggesting wear or build quality issues emerging early. If you're considering this model, budget for preventative maintenance and factor in repair costs before purchase, and ask the seller for full service history to understand what's already been addressed.
