2021 Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD Electric · BV21 FVL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on February 7, 2026, at 43,608 miles. The maintenance trend is stable regarding major mechanical components, though a recurring issue with tyre wear persists. The latest test flagged both nearside and offside rear tyres as worn close to the legal limit and wearing on the edges. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the vehicle's age. It covered 9,849 miles between February 2024 and February 2025, and a further 5,151 miles between February 2025 and February 2026. This steady usage pattern suggests the car has not suffered from long periods of standing, which typically preserves battery health and prevents seal degradation in electric vehicles. A buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the tyre tread and wheel alignment. The February 2024 test at 28,308 miles noted inner edge wear on both front tyres, and the February 2026 test now shows similar edge wear on the rear axle. This pattern of uneven wear across different axles strongly suggests a misalignment or a suspension geometry issue rather than simple consumable wear. Beyond the tyres, the MOT record is remarkably clean. There are no mentions of suspension bush failure, brake disc corrosion, or structural integrity issues. Given the lack of advisories in the February 2025 test, the primary mechanical concern remains the recurring tyre wear pattern, which requires professional alignment verification to prevent premature replacement of new tyres.
