2007 Iris.bus 50C15 3.0L Diesel · YK07 ABX

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent inspection in September 2025 with 314,081 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the vehicle has consistently cleared the testing process following previous minor setbacks. While the history shows instances of failure, the lack of recorded defects in the two most recent tests suggests that identified issues were addressed promptly to bring the bus back into MOT compliance standards. The mileage profile is exceptionally high for a 19-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 16,500 miles per annum. Between August 2023 and August 2024, the vehicle covered 13,207 miles, indicating consistent heavy use. The more recent interval between August 2024 and September 2025 saw an additional 13,602 miles covered in just thirteen months. This rapid accumulation places significant strain on the drivetrain, suspension components, and braking system, which are nearing the end of their typical service lives given the total mileage. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and mounting points, as high mileage and age often accelerate corrosion in heavy vehicles. The recorded failures in August 2023 and August 2024 indicate that the vehicle requires active attention to maintain roadworthiness standards, so a thorough check of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers is essential. Given the high annual mileage, verifying the absence of fluid leaks and the condition of the exhaust system is critical to ensure the vehicle has not suffered from neglected mechanical maintenance.
