Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2020 Lexmoto Lxr SE 125 Sy 125 10 SE?

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 2020 Lexmoto Lxr SE 125 Sy 125 10 SE?

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 2020 Lexmoto Lxr SE 125 Sy 125 10 SE?

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.

Based on MOT data from 202 vehicles, the 2020 Lexmoto Lxr SE 125 Sy 125 10 SE has a first-time MOT pass rate of 74.7%, 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 2020 Lexmoto Lxr SE 125 Sy 125 10 SE?

This 125cc scooter is significantly less reliable than the UK average, with just 54.3% passing their MOT first time against the typical 80% benchmark—a real red flag for a 2020 model. One in seven of these machines (15.3%) have recorded dangerous defects during their MOT history, which on a commuter scooter warrants serious consideration.

The median mileage of 6,574 miles is low for a four-year-old vehicle, suggesting many are either weekend-only machines or poorly maintained between tests. Most failures centre on routine wear items (average 0.59 failures per vehicle), but the high advisory count of 2.3 per machine points to consistent niggles—get a pre-purchase inspection focused on the braking system and lights, where budget scooters typically stumble.
