Our Verdict
Proceed with caution and a thorough pre-
Given the unusually high mileage of nearly 30,000 miles per year, this Model Y has likely seen extensive use — possibly as a private hire, company car, or long-distance commuter vehicle. Before committing to a purchase, request a full battery health report from Tesla or a specialist diagnostics check, as battery degradation is the single biggest concern on high-mileage EVs. Confirm whether the vehicle is still within its original 8-year / 120,000-mile battery and drive unit warranty, as this would provide valuable protection. Ask the seller to evidence any service history, though be aware that Tesla service records are typically logged digitally rather than in paper form.
Inspect the tyres carefully — high-mileage EVs consume tyres faster than equivalent petrol cars due to instant torque and vehicle weight. Check for uneven wear which could indicate suspension issues. Also verify the charging history if possible, as frequent rapid DC charging can accelerate battery degradation compared to regular AC home charging. A pre-purchase inspection by an EV-trained independent specialist is strongly recommended given the lack of MOT failure history to draw reassurance from.
When negotiating, use the mileage as leverage — at 88,535 miles, this car sits well above average and should be priced accordingly. Factor in the cost of replacing tyres, possible brake fluid changes, and cabin filter replacements if they haven't been done recently.
As a pure electric vehicle, this Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD benefits from very low running costs in terms of fuel. Real-world efficiency is typically 3.5-4.0 miles per kWh, giving an estimated range of 270-300 miles from the Long Range battery. Home charging costs around 8-10p per mile, while rapid charging can push this to 15-25p per mile. Annual road tax (VED) is currently £0 for fully electric vehicles, though this is subject to government review.
Insurance for the Model Y typically falls into groups 45-50, reflecting its performance and repair costs — expect premiums in the £800-£1,500 range depending on your circumstances. Tesla servicing is required every 12,500 miles or annually, with items such as tyre rotation, brake fluid checks, and HEPA filter replacement. Service costs are generally lower than combustion equivalents, but Tesla parts and out-of-warranty repairs can be expensive.
Estimated annual running cost: £900-£1,300 covering electricity, insurance, and routine servicing.
Start with the battery — request a Tesla app-based or OBD diagnostics report showing State of Health (SOH). Anything below 85% on a 2022 vehicle with this mileage would be a concern. Inspect the underside for any impact damage, as the low-slung battery pack is vulnerable to kerbs and speed bumps. Check the charging port for wear or damage, particularly if the car has been rapid-charged frequently.
Examine the windscreen closely, as the MOT advisory noted damage — assess whether it has worsened and whether it now impedes the driver's view. Inspect all four tyres for tread depth and even wear; expect to budget for replacements if they're below 3mm. Check the suspension for knocking noises over bumps, and examine the brake discs for corrosion, as EVs often suffer from seized calipers due to limited brake use through regenerative braking.
Verify all software features are functioning — Tesla regularly pushes over-the-air updates, so confirm the touchscreen, Autopilot features, and connectivity are all working correctly. Inspect the 12V auxiliary battery age, as these typically need replacing every 3-4 years and can cause various electrical gremlins when failing.
This 2022 Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD in white has covered 88,535 miles since its first registration in September 2022, averaging roughly 29,500 miles per year — substantially above the UK annual average of around 8,000 miles. Only one MOT test is on record (a pass in September 2025), meaning the full reliability picture is incomplete. The advisory recorded was a minor windscreen damage issue, not a mechanical fault. Buyers should weigh the heavy mileage against the EV-specific considerations of battery condition and warranty status.
The Tesla Model Y has generally performed well in independent reliability surveys, though Tesla's mixed build quality and reliance on screen-based controls can create unique issues. No specific aggregate MOT data is available for this variant to provide a statistical reliability comparison.
