Peugeot Tweet 125 Review
"Solid no-nonsense city commuter if bought with documented history."
Key Specs
Used Buyer Review
The 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.
