2021 Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD Electric · GL71 AEE

The Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD presents as roadworthy following the most recent MOT test on 21 November 2025 at 42,746 miles, where the tester recorded no defects. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history. A prior failed test on 20 November 2025 at 42,629 miles shows no defects logged, indicating an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a fault-based failure, and the vehicle passed cleanly the next day. Recorded mileage stands at 42,746 miles against a November 2024 reading of 34,926 miles, giving 7,820 miles covered in the intervening twelve months. This equates to roughly 8,549 miles per year since 2021 registration, a typical usage rate for the vehicle's age. The MOT dataset is sparse, with only three entries and no advisories or recorded wear on consumables such as tyres, brake discs, or suspension bushes across either pass or the unexplained failure. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and high-voltage battery cooling systems, as MOT tests on electric vehicles do not assess traction battery degradation. The absence of flagged corrosion, binding calipers, or worn coil springs in the record suggests no ongoing mechanical trend, but standing periods implied by lower annual mileage can conceal seized suspension joints or flat-spotted tyres. Verify the 20 November 2025 failure reason via DVSA portal, since the no-defect entry may reflect a documentation mismatch rather than a roadworthiness issue.
