AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2006 Yamaha has 10 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 678 miles. The vehicle's SORN status and lack of a valid MOT present significant legal and safety risks.
The vehicle shows extremely low mileage of 4,287 miles over 11 years, with suspiciously low or no mileage recorded for 5 years, indicating potential odometer fraud or long periods of inactivity.
Things to check
- Extremely low mileage: 4,287 miles over 11 years (Jan 2006 to Jan 2017) — well below UK average.
- Mileage anomalies: Unusually high jump before Oct 2011, then zero or very low for 5+ years — strong odometer fraud indicators.
- Recurring exhaust failures: Oct 2012 advisory escalated to major failure Jan 2014 — indicates chronic, unresolved system weakness.
- Three major failures: Lights (Oct 2011, Oct 2012), brakes (Oct 2010), and emissions (Oct 2012) — widespread safety and emissions issues.
Working in its favour
- No recent MOT failures: The last MOT failure was in Jan 2014, indicating no recent safety-critical issues.
- Immediate retest passes: All 3 failures were immediately rectified and passed on the same or next day, showing responsive ownership.
- No recurring structural failures: While there are multiple system failures, no single component has failed repeatedly.
- Consistent low annual mileage: Once the initial high jump, the vehicle has consistently low usage, suggesting light use rather than neglect.
