2017 Tesla Model X Electricity · DIA 11

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a clear trend of deferred consumable replacements. While the most recent test in October 2025 at 77,432 miles passed, the tester flagged a defective nearside windscreen wiper blade and both rear tyres reaching the legal limit. This follows a recurring pattern seen in 2023 and 2024 where the owner consistently waited to address tyre wear until the annual MOT inspection rather than performing proactive preventative maintenance. At 77,432 miles, the car has averaged approximately 8,600 miles per year, which is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. The mileage progression is steady, with a gap of roughly 10,600 miles between the 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 10,700 miles between 2024 and 2025. This consistent use suggests the vehicle is not sitting idle for long periods, though the recorded mileage confirms that components are being worked regularly enough to accelerate standard wear on friction parts. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the braking system and suspension components. The 2024 record noted thin brake pads and pitted, scored discs on the front axle, with the inner rear pads also showing significant wear at that time. Given the repeated reports of tyres worn on edges across multiple years, a physical inspection should check for signs of incorrect alignment or worn suspension bushes. Furthermore, given the age and mileage of this Model X, the air suspension system and control arms should be scrutinized for leaks or perished rubber, as these are not covered by the standard MOT inspection protocol.
