Lexmoto Tommy 125 (2011)
2011 Lexmoto Tommy 125
CarHunch analysed 256 real MOT records for the 2011 Lexmoto Tommy 125. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
The 2011 Lexmoto Tommy 125 has a first-time MOT pass rate of just 50%, well below the UK average of 80%, which suggests these bikes struggle with consistency through testing. With 12% of vehicles having recorded dangerous defects, this is a notable concern for a buyer weighing safety and reliability.
At an average mileage of 5,240 miles for a 13-year-old bike, these machines are lightly used, yet they're still averaging 0.76 failures and 1.6 advisories per test—a sign that age and storage conditions matter more than riding miles on older small-capacity bikes. If you're considering one, budget for regular pre-MOT checks on ignition systems, lights, and brake condition, and factor in the likelihood you'll need repairs before each test.
What to check before buying a 2011 Lexmoto Tommy 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.
