UK

The 2014 Lexmoto Gladiator 125 is a reliability disaster—just 4.5% pass first time against the UK average of 80%, with petrol models performing marginally worse at 4.2%. Only 1.1% of vehicles have ever suffered a dangerous defect, so safety isn't the core issue; instead, the bike simply fails MOT repeatedly on routine checks.

At a median mileage of under 5,000 miles, these machines aren't high-mileage beaters, yet they're still failing badly, which suggests poor build quality or inadequate maintenance from owners rather than age-related wear. With just 0.06 failures and 0.2 advisories per vehicle on average, the MOT results point to chronic small problems across multiple systems rather than single catastrophic faults. If you're considering one, budget for frequent repairs and plan to be hands-on with basic maintenance, or avoid the marque entirely.

MOT statistics not available

We have 264 2014 Lexmoto Gladiator 125 vehicles on record, but none have light-vehicle MOT history in our data source.

There are a few reasons this can happen:

  • Heavy commercial vehicle — trucks, buses and coaches over 3.5 tonnes are tested under the DVSA annual HGV/PSV regime, which uses a separate database not included in our data source
  • Imported vehicles — vehicles registered abroad and recently brought to the UK may have no UK MOT history yet
  • MOT-exempt — vehicles manufactured before 1986 qualify under the 40-year rolling exemption; some specialist and agricultural vehicles are also exempt
  • Never used on public roads — some vehicles are registered but kept off-road and have never required an MOT
