VIN Invalid?

[kernow24]

ive been looking for a little scooter for a run around.

seen one today that I like.

But the VIN comes up as invalid on VIN checking sites.

The scooter is nearly 5 years old, has the VIN on the latest MOT certificate
and when checking online for the MOT history it all matches up.

The direct.gov vehicle enquiry all matches up, to the type of bike, reg, colour
etc etc and when using the document reference from the V5 it come back as
valid and gives an issue date the same as its on the V5

Something just doesn't seem right, even though everything matches up bar
the VIN coming back as invalid on the VIN checking sites.

Should I pass up and find something else?
