Insight summary

Yamaha Ybr 125 is a very rare model in this snapshot, with 1,789 represented vehicles and 0.00% of the active UK pool tracked by AutoRank. For the last 5 years, it has a pass rate of 76.0% from 15,075 MOT tests, with a reliability score of 52. The current pool shows an average of 19,168 miles and an average age of 14.1 years, while mature-fleet mileage is estimated at 19,172 miles. Petrol leads the fuel split, followed by other, and the most frequent defect themes are lighting, drive chain excessively loose and tyre condition. The practical read is that the Yamaha Ybr 125 looks like a solid used-car baseline rather than a rare find, with age, mileage and common wear items doing most of the explaining.
