This 2008 Yamaha has 15 MOT tests on record with a 93% pass rate and 9,197 miles. The recurring tyre advisories and a past shock absorber failure warrant careful inspection.
The vehicle shows extremely low mileage of 9,197 miles over 18 years, with a significant drop in annual usage from 2015 onwards, indicating potential odometer issues or long periods of inactivity.
Things to check
- Extremely low mileage: 9,197 miles in 18 years (Jan 2008 to Sep 2025) — well below UK average.
