Hi all, newbie here. Need a new 125 as mine got nicked :(((( 

Had a Yamaha ybr which was great for my commute but I keep seeing retro 125s which are more my style preference. Yamaha's xsr is VERY pretty but out of my price range sadly - are bikes like Mutt and Bullit reliable enough for my daily commute? thanks for any advice!

Both lovely looking bikes, but not sure I'd want to ride them in the rain looking at those tiny front mudguards.  I don't think you'll beat the Yamaha for reliability, but best of luck with your search.

Maybe something like a zontes zt125g they get good reviews and seem well put together more so than a lot of other Chinese brands. The Mutt look the part but same air cooled suzuki derived engine you find in other cheap Chinese bikes but with a high price tag.
