2010 Piaggio Vespa GTS 300 Super
CarHunch analysed 371 real MOT records for the 2010 Piaggio Vespa GTS 300 Super. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
The 2010 Vespa GTS 300 Super has a first-time MOT pass rate of 76.6%, which sits slightly below the UK average of 80%, suggesting these scooters are marginally more prone to test failures than typical. The good news is that dangerous defects are relatively uncommon at 9.4%, so serious safety issues are not a widespread concern for this model.
At 15,706 miles median mileage for a 14-year-old scooter, these are lightly used machines, yet they still average 0.56 failures and 2.0 advisories per test—indicating that age and storage conditions matter more than miles on a Vespa. Before buying, have a pre-purchase inspection focus on fuel system integrity and electrical connections, as advisories cluster around these areas on aging scooters.
What to check before buying a 2010 Piaggio Vespa GTS 300 Super
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.
