This Nmax 125 passes its MOT first time only 69.7% of the time, roughly 10 percentage points below the UK average of 80%, suggesting reliability issues that buyers should take seriously. More concerning still: 22% of these scooters have recorded dangerous defects during their MOT history, well above the threshold where safety becomes a genuine buyer worry.

At 37,500 miles average, these five-year-old scooters are running predictably high mileage for commuter-focused machines, and the 0.47 failures per vehicle combined with 1.8 advisories per vehicle tells you that wear items and minor issues accumulate steadily. Before buying one secondhand, get a full pre-purchase inspection and specifically check the braking system, suspension, and lights—the defect data suggests these are weak points on this model.

For context

✅ Good baseline reliability. A 87.8% first-time pass rate puts this well above the UK average — it's a well-sorted vehicle in this age bracket.

🔧 Expect consumable spend. An average of 1.8 advisories per vehicle tells you wear items (tyres, brakes) get flagged regularly. Budget for them — they're not surprises.

🔍 The dangerous defect figure is real. Most are one-off tyre failures or brake issues — not structural problems. But it's exactly why checking the individual vehicle's history is essential, not optional.

These stats describe 1,911 vehicles as a group. The specific vehicle you're looking at could be the one good example or the one outlier. Run its registration to find out.
