2025 Mellor Coachcraft Sigma 7N Electric · MX25 AZO

A completely clean MOT record to date places the 2025 Mellor Coachcraft Sigma 7N on a solid road‑worthiness footing; its sole test on 20 July 2026 recorded a pass with no defects noted, indicating no material failures have been identified in the first year of service. At 8,008 miles the vehicle shows an average annual accumulation of roughly 8,000 miles, which sits squarely within normal usage for a coach‑type bus of this age. There are no gaps in the MOT chronology, so the mileage figure reflects continuous operation rather than prolonged storage, meaning wear on consumables such as tyres, brake pads and suspension components will be in line with typical service intervals for a vehicle with this mileage. Although the MOT sheet reports no faults, a prudent buyer should still verify the condition of items that are not automatically flagged by the test. On a low‑speed test drive listen for any clunking or knocking over bumps that could hint at worn suspension bushes or loose rear axle links, and feel for any steering pull or vibration that might betray early steering rack wear. Apply the brakes firmly and note any judder, excessive pedal travel or uneven pedal feel, which would suggest the need to inspect pads, discs and hydraulic lines despite the clean record. Finally, inspect tyre tread depth and sidewall condition for even wear patterns, as uneven wear can be an early sign of alignment or suspension issues that have not yet manifested as MOT‑recordable defects. Going forward, maintain a regular service schedule in line with the manufacturer’s recommendations and keep an eye on the wear items mentioned above, especially as the bus approaches the next MOT window. Early detection of any emerging symptoms will help preserve the vehicle’s current clean road‑worthiness status and avoid unexpected downtime.
