Was Käufer wissen sollten
Reliable Scooter Engine
The Tweet 125 uses a proven single-cylinder 4-stroke engine known for smooth urban performance and low maintenance costs. Regular oil changes every 3,000 km are key to keeping it running long-term.
Watch the Variator Belt
The CVT drive belt is a known wear item and should be inspected around 10,000–15,000 km, as neglect can cause sudden power loss. Always ask for service history when buying used.
Steady Resale Value
The Tweet 125 holds reasonable resale value in the urban commuter market, especially well-maintained low-mileage examples. Its Peugeot branding and parts availability in Europe help sustain buyer confidence.

Bewertung von gebrauchten Käufern
"Solid no-nonsense city commuter if bought with documented history."
$1,200-$2,800 usedThe Peugeot Tweet 125 is one of those scooters that quietly does its job without making any fuss — which is both its strength and its limitation. It's a proper commuter tool: light, flickable through traffic, and the fuel economy is genuinely impressive. Used examples from 2010 onwards are reasonably plentiful, but condition varies wildly. Always check the CVT belt and rollers — they wear fast if previous owners skipped servicing, and parts availability from Peugeot dealers can be patchy depending on your location. The riding position is comfortable enough for city miles, but anything over 40 minutes starts feeling cramped. Top speed sits around 60mph on a good day, so keep it urban. The underseat storage is decent but not class-leading. Build quality is solidly French — functional but not exciting, and some plastic panels feel thin after a few years of use. Buy one with full service history and under 8,000 miles if you can. Avoid anything that's been stood for over a year — fuel systems get gummed up badly.
