AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2008 Yamaha has 9 MOT tests on record with a 89% pass rate and 1,885 miles. The vehicle is currently untaxed and has a lapsed MOT.
The vehicle shows extremely low mileage of 1,885 miles over 18 years, averaging only 1,117 miles/year, which is highly suspicious and suggests potential odometer tampering or long periods of inactivity.
Things to check
- Extremely low mileage: 1,885 miles in 18 years (Jun 2019) — well below UK average.
- Mileage significantly below cohort: 12,777 mi total — bottom 10% of similar YAMAHAs of this age.
- MOT not valid as of report date (expired 2020-12-03) — requires immediate retest or new MOT.
- First MOT test failed (Jun 2019) with no defect details provided — indicates a past failure.
Working in its favour
- No dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history.
- Single past failure (Jun 2019) was immediately rectified and passed on the same day.
- Consistent annual mileage trajectory since first MOT, despite being very low.
- No recurring major system failures or advisories across its MOT history.
