2017 TESLA MODEL SElectric

The 2017 Tesla Model S presents a stable roadworthiness profile, with all five MOT tests from 2022 to 2026 recording no defects. The most recent test on 2026-01-26 at 37,062 miles confirmed compliance, reinforcing a consistent maintenance record. No recurring issues or structural concerns were flagged across the six-year span, indicating the vehicle has been well-maintained. The absence of advisories or failures suggests the previous owner prioritized regular servicing, though low mileage may mask certain wear patterns. The vehicle’s mileage of 37,062 miles over nine years equates to approximately 4,118 miles annually, significantly below the UK average for its age. This low usage aligns with MOT tests spaced roughly 12 months apart, with incremental mileage increases: 20,182 (2022) to 37,062 (2026). Gaps between tests are consistent, with no evidence of rapid accumulation or prolonged inactivity. However, prolonged low-mileage operation can lead to battery degradation, fluid stagnation, or electrical system issues, which may not surface in standard MOT checks. A buyer should inspect the vehicle’s battery health, as prolonged inactivity may affect capacity. Electrical components, including the charging system and infotainment, warrant scrutiny for software glitches or corrosion. Suspension bushes and steering linkages, often overlooked in low-mileage vehicles, should be checked for dry rot or wear. While the MOT history shows no structural rust or brake faults, a physical inspection is essential to confirm the condition of the drivetrain and ensure no hidden issues arose from extended periods of minimal use.
