2021 TESLA MODEL 3 LONG RANGE AWDElectric

This Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD presents a clean and stable roadworthiness record, with both its most recent MOT in May 2025 at 63,253 miles and the preceding test in May 2024 at 46,190 miles passing without any defects. The absence of advisories, faults, or even minor issues across these two consecutive tests suggests the vehicle has been well maintained in critical areas—suspension geometry, brake functionality, structural integrity, and emissions compliance. The fact that both tests occurred within the standard 12-month window further indicates no forced early retesting, which often signals unresolved problems. For a vehicle of this age and mileage, this level of consistency is uncommon and implies either meticulous servicing or inherent reliability in its electric drivetrain components. The mileage accumulation of 17,063 miles between May 2024 and May 2025—averaging roughly 1,422 miles per month—is notably high for a five-year-old vehicle, particularly one with an electric powertrain that typically sees lower annual mileage. While this rate isn’t inherently problematic, it does suggest the car has been driven frequently, which may accelerate wear on non-electric components like tyres, wiper blades, and potentially suspension bushes or brake friction materials over time. The lack of MOT history beyond these two entries means there’s no data to confirm whether this mileage trend has persisted longer term, but the absence of defects in the most recent test implies the owner has either addressed wear proactively or the vehicle’s components are holding up well under heavy use. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should still conduct a thorough pre-purchase inspection, focusing on areas that typically degrade with high mileage. Pay particular attention to the condition of the tyres—check tread depth uniformity and sidewall integrity, as electric vehicles often run on softer compounds that wear faster. Inspect the suspension for any signs of bush wear, coil spring sag, or uneven ride height, especially if the car has been driven aggressively or on rough roads. While the MOT records show no brake-related issues, a manual check of brake pad thickness, disc condition, and caliper binding is prudent, as electric vehicles can develop uneven brake wear due to regenerative braking patterns. Finally, verify there’s no evidence of corrosion in high-moisture areas, such as the underbody or wheel arches, particularly if the car has been stored or driven in harsh climates. The absence of MOT advisories doesn’t guarantee these components are flawless, but it does reduce the likelihood of hidden, critical failures.
