Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2022 Mutt Fat Sabbath 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 Mutt Fat Sabbath 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 Mutt Fat Sabbath 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.

Based on MOT data from 168 vehicles, the 2022 Mutt Fat Sabbath 125 has a first-time MOT pass rate of 81.1%, 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 Mutt Fat Sabbath 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 MUTT FAT SABBATH 125 has a first-time pass rate of just 40.5%, well below the UK average of 80%, which signals genuine reliability concerns for buyers. The dangerous defect rate sits at 4.2%, which is manageable, but the low pass rate suggests this model has consistent issues across multiple systems rather than one critical weakness.

With a median mileage of just 3,188 miles for vehicles at MOT age, these bikes are still virtually new, yet they're already failing at twice the national rate—this isn't a high-mileage wear story. The average vehicle has picked up 0.19 failures and 0.5 advisories, pointing to minor but persistent problems rather than catastrophic defects, so before buying one, get a pre-purchase inspection focused on the electrical and fuel systems where most failures cluster.
