2021 Zontes Zt 125 G1
CarHunch analysed 246 real MOT records for the 2021 Zontes Zt 125 G1. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
The 2021 ZONTES ZT 125-G1 has a first-time MOT pass rate of 65.7%, which sits well below the UK average of 80%, suggesting these bikes encounter more issues than typical at test time. The good news is that only 5.7% have ever suffered a dangerous defect, so safety-critical failures are uncommon.
At a median mileage of 5,730 miles for vehicles now around three years old, these bikes are running relatively low miles, yet still averaging 0.24 failures and 0.8 advisories per test—indicating that age and light use aren't protecting them from wear. Before buying, have a pre-purchase inspection focus on the systems that most commonly fail on this model, and budget for preventive maintenance to avoid becoming part of the one-in-three that don't pass on the first attempt.
What to check before buying a 2021 Zontes Zt 125 G1
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.
