AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2004 Yamaha has 14 MOT tests on record with a 79% pass rate and 7,136 miles. Recurring brake and tyre advisories indicate potential wear items that will require attention.

The vehicle shows very low usage, averaging 3,006 miles/year, with a significant anomaly of only 40,532 miles recorded over 22 years, suggesting potential odometer issues.

Things to check

  • Mileage significantly below UK average: 40,532 mi total — bottom 10% of similar YAMAHAs of this age.
  • Three major brake failures (Mar 2009, Mar 2012, Mar 2017) and two related advisories.
  • Two recurring advisories for tyres (Mar 2009, Mar 2017) and suspension (Mar 2009, Mar 2017).
  • Not ULEZ-compliant, incurring £12.50/day in London.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
  • Consistent retest passes after failures, showing issues were addressed
