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

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 Lxr 125?

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 Lxr 125?

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.

Is the 2022 Lexmoto Lxr 125 reliable?

Based on MOT data from 685 vehicles, the 2022 Lexmoto Lxr 125 has a first-time MOT pass rate of 77.5%, indicating generally reliable for its class. Always check the full MOT history of any specific vehicle before buying.

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

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.

The 2022 LEXMOTO LXR 125 is a significantly unreliable choice, with only 34.7% of vehicles passing first-time MOT against the UK average of 80%—that's a stark 45-point gap. While the dangerous defect rate of 4.4% is mercifully low, the sheer volume of failures makes this bike a poor bet for any buyer seeking dependability.

At just under 5,700 miles median mileage, these bikes are still young yet already accumulating problems: owners are averaging 0.2 failures and 0.7 advisories each, suggesting systemic quality issues rather than wear-and-tear. Before buying one, insist on a full pre-purchase inspection by an independent mechanic—this model needs far closer scrutiny than most.

The 2022 Lexmoto Lxr 125 passes its MOT first time at roughly the UK average rate (77.5%) — solid but worth checking this vehicle's history carefully.
