2023 Tesla Model 3 Performance AWD Electric · 35 ELM

The vehicle currently holds no MOT history, which is consistent with its status as a 2023 model. Under current UK legislation, this vehicle is not due for its first statutory MOT test until it reaches its third anniversary of registration. Consequently, there is no historical data available to assess mechanical trends, recurring faults, or previous maintenance standards. The lack of mileage data prevents an assessment of usage patterns or wear rates. Without historical odometer readings, it is impossible to determine if the vehicle has been subjected to high-mileage motorway use or short-trip urban driving. Prospective buyers should verify the current odometer reading against the original sales invoice to ensure the mileage aligns with the expected usage for a three-year-old high-performance electric vehicle. Since this car has never undergone an independent DVSA inspection, the burden of verifying its condition rests entirely on a physical examination. You should prioritize an inspection of the suspension components, specifically checking for play in the control arm bushings and signs of premature wear on the tyres, as the high torque output of the Performance model can accelerate degradation of these parts. Inspect the brake discs and pads for signs of surface corrosion or uneven wear, which can occur if the regenerative braking system is used exclusively without regular heavy application. Ensure the structural integrity of the battery housing and underbody panels remains free from impact damage, as any compromise to these areas could indicate previous road debris strikes or improper lifting during past servicing.
