2016 Lexmoto Diablo 125

CarHunch is tracking 139 2016 Lexmoto Diablo 125 vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.

The 2016 Lexmoto Diablo 125 passes its MOT first time just 70% of the time, which is 10 percentage points below the UK average of 80%—a meaningful gap suggesting these machines are less reliable than typical vehicles when it comes to roadworthiness. The good news is that no vehicles in this cohort have ever recorded a dangerous defect, so safety isn't a concern.

With an average mileage of just 18,599 miles across 139 bikes, these machines are relatively lightly used for their age, which makes the below-average pass rate more worrying rather than less. The fact that first-time failures average zero per vehicle suggests issues tend to be minor when they do occur, but if you're considering one, budget for a pre-purchase inspection by a specialist—nearly 1 in 3 don't make it through MOT on the first attempt.

What to check before buying a 2016 Lexmoto Diablo 125

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.
