2021 Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD Electric · JJ65 CAR

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy state based on the most recent MOT pass on 31 October 2025. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the latest inspection identifies the onset of wear in the rear suspension system. Specifically, the tester flagged worn pins or bushes on both the nearside and offside rear suspension arms. While these did not cause excessive movement at the time of testing, they represent a developing mechanical issue rather than a one-off failure. The mileage is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging roughly 10,330 miles per year. The record shows a gain of 11,543 miles between the November 2024 test at 40,106 miles and the October 2025 test at 51,649 miles. This steady accumulation suggests regular use rather than periods of prolonged standing, which generally benefits battery health in electric vehicles. A buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the rear suspension components. The dual advisories regarding suspension arm bushes suggest the rubber mounts are degrading, which may soon lead to poor handling or premature tyre wear. It is worth verifying if these parts have been replaced since the October 2025 test to avoid an imminent repair bill. The November 2024 entry noted a damaged central windscreen. While the tester deemed this acceptable for a pass, the buyer should check for any spreading cracks or chips that could compromise the structural integrity of the glass or obstruct the driver's view. Aside from these specific points, the MOT history is relatively clean for a five-year-old vehicle.
