2025 Tesla Model 3 Electric · AF75 VLZ

No DVSA MOT test history is presently available for this 2025 Tesla Model 3. As the vehicle is approximately one year old, this absence is fully consistent with current UK roadworthiness legislation, which does not require an MOT test until the car reaches three years of age from the date of first registration. Without prior test records or recorded advisories, it is not possible to evaluate any maintenance trend, whether stable, worsening, or improving, because the official DVSA database contains no empirical data against which such a judgement could be formed. Any prospective buyer must therefore rely entirely upon independent physical inspection, service documentation, and the warranty position of the vehicle rather than upon historical MOT evidence. With the recorded mileage unknown and no comparable MOT data points to benchmark against, a meaningful annual usage rate cannot be calculated for this Tesla Model 3. Electric vehicles of this type are frequently used for either high-mileage commuting or relatively low urban mileage depending on owner circumstances, and the mechanical implications vary considerably in each scenario. A high-mileage example would warrant particular attention to the condition of the suspension components, the health and degradation of the high-voltage traction battery, brake disc wear, and tyre condition, whereas a low-mileage example may present concerns regarding brake disc corrosion and potential caliper seizure from extended periods of standing, tyre perishing from age rather than wear, and potential 12V auxiliary battery degradation. A thorough review of the vehicle's service history and any available telematics data is therefore essential. Given the absence of any recorded defects or advisories, the buyer should adopt a structured practical inspection approach appropriate to a modern electric vehicle of this age. Visually inspect all four tyres for uneven wear patterns, which can indicate tracking misalignment or worn suspension bushes, and examine the sidewalls closely for perishing or cracking caused by age-related rubber degradation, particularly if the car has been stored outside. Check the brake discs for surface corrosion, a common issue on EVs that rely heavily on regenerative braking, and confirm that the callipers are releasing freely without binding. Verify the condition of the high-voltage traction battery through the in-vehicle energy app or a diagnostic scan, and inspect the charging port and cable for any signs of damage or contamination. Test all interior and exterior functions, including the touchscreen responsiveness, climate control, and driver assistance systems, as the integration of these features is critical to the vehicle's safe operation. Finally, confirm the authenticity and continuity of the service book, ensuring that any scheduled inspections, software updates, or warranty repairs have been properly documented and carried out by an approved Tesla service centre. Verify that any time-based servicing requirements, such as brake fluid renewal, coolant circuit checks, and cabin filter replacement, have been completed in accordance with the manufacturer's recommended intervals rather than purely mileage-based schedules. Inspect the underside of the vehicle, where safely accessible, for any evidence of impact damage, fluid leaks, or corrosion to structural or suspension components, particularly given the relatively heavy kerb weight of the Model 3 and its effect on suspension component longevity. Ensure that the vehicle history check is clean, confirming no outstanding finance, insurance write-off categorisation, or stolen vehicle markers, and request documentary evidence of the remaining manufacturer warranty cover. Should any doubt remain regarding the mechanical or electrical condition of the vehicle, an independent pre-purchase inspection by a qualified specialist conversant with electric vehicles would represent a prudent investment prior to committing to the purchase.
