Mabe the part of the stator that powers the lights is wearing out ?I have a smally in at the moment with no lights because the light coil is below parr ! Like jtr says lower watt bulbs or make tick over quicker (more power)

It's not a fault mate, it's just the way it is.
Try LED lamps in your tail and brake and raise the tickover slightly for your MOT.
The best thing though is to try and find out where the most scooter friendly MOT centre is in your area as not all places have a clue when it comes to scoots, hence your failure for something which is quite natural on a Vespa.
