UK

The 2015 Wrightbus New Bus for London is a purpose-built double-decker bus that doesn't appear in the standard DVLA light-vehicle MOT database — it's a heavy commercial vehicle tested under the separate DVSA heavy goods vehicle regime, which is why we have no MOT pass rates or defect data to analyse. These buses were primarily operated as London's iconic red buses and were rarely sold into private ownership, so the 307 vehicles in this cohort likely represent fleet operations or specialised commercial use rather than individual buyers. Standard car MOT statistics simply don't apply to vehicles of this type and size.

If you're looking at one of these buses as a potential purchase, you'll need to check its DVSA testing history directly rather than relying on light-vehicle MOT data, and you should seek specialist surveys from someone experienced with large commercial vehicles — the maintenance, insurance, and operational costs are entirely different from a standard car.

MOT statistics not available

We have 307 2015 Wrightbus New Bus For London vehicles on record, but none have light-vehicle MOT history in our data source.

There are a few reasons this can happen:

  • Heavy commercial vehicle — trucks, buses and coaches over 3.5 tonnes are tested under the DVSA annual HGV/PSV regime, which uses a separate database not included in our data source
  • Imported vehicles — vehicles registered abroad and recently brought to the UK may have no UK MOT history yet
  • MOT-exempt — vehicles manufactured before 1986 qualify under the 40-year rolling exemption; some specialist and agricultural vehicles are also exempt
  • Never used on public roads — some vehicles are registered but kept off-road and have never required an MOT
