2026 Tesla Model Y Long Range RWD Electric · AF26 VVB

The vehicle has no recorded MOT history in the DVSA database, meaning no formal test outcome is available to establish a maintenance trend. In the absence of any pass, fail or advisory entries, it is not possible to judge whether the car’s condition has been improving, remaining stable, or deteriorating over time; the buyer should therefore treat the lack of data as a risk factor and seek independent verification of the car’s service and inspection records. Mileage information is also absent, so no comparison can be made between the vehicle’s age and its accumulated kilometres. For a 2026 model, a typical annual usage would be in the range of 8 000 to 12 000 miles; any figure substantially below this could indicate limited use and potential age‑related degradation of components that do not depend on mileage, while a figure markedly above the norm would suggest higher wear on suspension bushings, tyre tread, and brake wear components. Without a mileage reading the buyer should request a recent odometer snapshot and any supporting service book entries to establish a realistic usage profile. Given the lack of MOT data and mileage, the prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection focused on time‑related wear. Examine the tyre sidewalls for cracking, dry rot or uneven wear that can develop even on low‑kilometre electric vehicles; check the wheel rims for corrosion, particularly around the hub bore where moisture can collect. Inspect the under‑body for any signs of corrosion on the chassis, suspension mounting points and brake caliper brackets, as prolonged standing can promote rust on steel components. Verify the condition of the high‑voltage battery pack by confirming a recent state‑of‑health report from the manufacturer or a qualified service centre, and ensure the 12 V auxiliary battery is not depleted, as a weak auxiliary battery can cause warning lights and affect electronic stability systems. On a test drive, listen for any abnormal noises such as clunking from the front suspension or loose bushings, and feel for any irregularities in steering feedback that might indicate worn tie‑rod ends or misaligned steering geometry. Observe the regenerative braking response for smoothness; any judder or pulsation could point to brake disc corrosion or uneven pad wear, which, although less common on EVs, still requires attention. Finally, confirm that all electronic safety systems—including airbags, traction control, and advanced driver‑assist features—are fully operational, and request documentation of any recent software updates or recalls that may affect the vehicle’s roadworthiness.
