2022 Tesla Model Y Performance AWD Electric · LB72 OBZ

This Tesla Model Y Performance AWD, tested just seven months ago on 2026-01-23, achieved a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. The absence of any recurring issues or advisory notes suggests the vehicle has maintained a stable roadworthiness profile during its most recent MOT cycle. However, the duplicate entry—both a pass and a fail on the same date—indicates a potential administrative error rather than a mechanical trend, though this should be clarified with the seller. No structural or safety-critical components were flagged in the latest test, which is a positive indicator for immediate roadworthiness. The recorded mileage of 11,311 miles over approximately four years—roughly 2,828 miles annually—is exceptionally low for a vehicle of this age. Such minimal usage may imply prolonged periods of inactivity, which could accelerate wear on components like suspension bushes, wheel bearings, and battery health if the vehicle was stored without proper care. The lack of intermediate MOT tests or service records means there is no data to confirm whether critical maintenance, such as brake fluid changes or suspension servicing, was performed. Buyers should verify if the vehicle was stored on stands or in a climate-controlled environment, as prolonged static conditions can lead to unexpected issues with seals, tyres, or even battery degradation in electric vehicles. Given the sparse MOT history, the primary focus for an in-person inspection should be the suspension system, particularly the condition of the coil springs, bushes, and struts, as these are prone to degradation even with low mileage if the vehicle was not regularly driven. The brakes, including calipers, pads, and discs, should be examined for uneven wear or binding, especially if the vehicle was stored with the brakes applied. Electric vehicle-specific checks—such as battery health, cooling system integrity, and high-voltage wiring—are also essential, though these are not typically covered by the MOT. The absence of advisories does not guarantee these areas are flawless, so a thorough diagnostic scan and visual inspection are advised. Finally, inspect the underbody for corrosion, particularly around the wheel arches and sills, as this can compromise structural integrity over time.
