Piaggio Vespa GTS 300 Super Abs (2022)
2022 Piaggio Vespa GTS 300 Super Abs
CarHunch analysed 246 real MOT records for the 2022 Piaggio Vespa GTS 300 Super Abs. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
The 2022 Vespa GTS 300 Super ABS has a first-time pass rate of 75.5%, running 4.5 points below the UK average of 80%, which suggests slightly more teething issues than typical for this age group. The dangerous defect rate sits at a reassuring 0.8%, so safety concerns are minimal across the cohort.
These Vespas are clocking relatively low mileage at just 3,698 miles on average, which is sensible for a scooter that's mainly used for urban runabouts—and that lower-than-average mileage actually explains some of the pass rate weakness, since newer, lower-mileage bikes can harbour unresolved niggles from delivery. The average 0.04 failures and 0.1 advisories per vehicle point to minor gremlins rather than systemic problems, so before buying one used, get a full pre-purchase inspection to catch any dealer-missed electrical or fuel system issues specific to your unit.
What to check before buying a 2022 Piaggio Vespa GTS 300 Super Abs
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.
