Availability of the VOX V125 was only "limited" in the sense that it did not sell in the hoped for quantities because it was;
How are you supposed to do that without any specifics? Is this guy for real?

Happy reading.
It does have some minor desirability because Paul Weller used a V125 briefly in The Jam, so Weller fans might pay reasonable money for one - although his was the head and cab version - and it’s relatively rare. I can’t see even the most minty mint one with its original Mullard EL34s being worth more than a grand though.
And Weller was a bit like the Beatles in that he used whatever Vox threw at him - he even endorsed the terrible Q Series when he was in the Style Council.

I think turning one up to power stage overdrive levels would be very unwise anyway, unless it was running through much more robust speakers than the originals in the combos or 2x12" cabs.
I think it's highly unlikely, because no famous recordings I know of were done with one - Weller only used them on stage.

Firstly the speakers aren't Alnico, and secondly I've never heard of Brian May ever using one.
