Peugeot Looxor 125
The Peugeot Looxor 125 has a top speed of 100 km/h (approx., governed per 125cc EU regulations), produces 11 hp and weighs 155 kg. Motoryk rates it 5.5/10.
Der Peugeot Looxor 125 wurde 2001 als stilvoller Maxi-Scooter vorgestellt, der sich an Pendler in der Stadt richtet, die eine Mischung aus Funktionalität und modernem Design suchen. Er verfügte über eine markante Frontverkleidung mit Doppelscheinwerfern und wurde in den frühen 2000er Jahren als Premium-Angebot in der Roller-Palette von Peugeot positioniert. Der Looxor trug dazu bei, die Präsenz von Peugeot Scooters im wachsenden 125-ccm-Maxi-Segment in Europa zu festigen, bevor das Modell schließlich Mitte des Jahrzehnts vom Markt genommen wurde.

Was Käufer wissen sollten
CVT Belt Watch Out
The Looxor 125 uses a CVT automatic transmission whose drive belt is a known wear item — inspect or replace it every 8,000–10,000 km to avoid sudden power loss or breakdowns.
Carb Clogging Issues
Older Looxor 125 models with carbureted engines are prone to carburetor blockages if left sitting unused, so check for smooth idle and throttle response before buying any stored example.
Low Resale Value
The Looxor 125 depreciates steeply, making used examples very affordable, but parts availability can be limited as Peugeot Scooters has had ownership and distribution changes over the years.

"Ein mutiges Aussehen, das seine mechanische Zuverlässigkeit überdauert."
Der Looxor sorgte 2001 für Aufsehen und tut es immer noch — diese herabfallende Karosserie altert wirklich besser als die meisten Roller dieser Zeit. In der Stadt ist er flott genug, fährt sauber von den Lichtern und sitzt bequem bei 80 km/h, aber wenn man ihn in Richtung der angegebenen 110 bewegt, werden einem die Vibrationen durch die Dielen schnell ehrlich. Das CVT ist glatt, es gibt keine Beschwerden, aber französische Kunststoffe aus dieser Zeit sind bekanntermaßen spröde — ich habe in einem Jahr zwei Frontverkleidungsclips und eine Spiegelhalterung ausgetauscht. Das Peugeot-Händlernetzwerk außerhalb Frankreichs ist dünn wie Papier. Nehmen Sie sich also etwas Zeit für kreative Ersatzteilbeschaffung oder lernen Sie eBay zu lieben.

"Cheap urban runabout if the price genuinely reflects its age."
$500-$1,200 usedThe Looxor 125 was Peugeot's attempt at a sporty-looking twist-and-go during the early 2000s scooter boom, and honestly? It's not terrible. The Piaggio-derived engine is reasonably tractable for city work, and parts availability isn't the nightmare you'd expect given the French branding — many components cross-reference with common Italian stuff. That said, don't let the aggressive bodywork fool you into thinking this thing is quick. It's pedestrian at best. Used examples are getting old now, and that's where the headaches live. Carb issues, tired variators, and cracked plastic are basically guaranteed at this point. The build quality never matched the styling ambition — thin panels, average finish. CVT maintenance gets ignored by most previous owners, so budget for a full belt and roller service immediately. Electrics can be flaky too, particularly the dash and indicators on higher-mileage bikes. If the price is right — under $800 — and it runs cleanly, it'll serve a commuter well enough. Pay more than that and you're just buying someone else's neglect.
