2017 Tesla Model S Electric · LC67 RVO

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 17 December 2025 at 28,035 miles, confirming its roadworthiness at that point. The maintenance trend is stable, with a consistent annual pass record since 2021. However, a recurring pattern of tyre damage is evident, with cuts reported on various wheels across four consecutive tests. This suggests an ongoing exposure to road debris or potential issues with tyre pressure/condition during periods of storage, rather than a deterioration in core mechanical safety systems like brakes or suspension, which have not been flagged. The recorded mileage of 28,035 miles over approximately nine years averages just 3,115 miles annually, which is exceptionally low. This indicates either very light use or prolonged periods of inactivity. The MOT history shows consistent annual testing with no significant gaps, and the mileage increments between tests (roughly 3,000-4,000 miles per year) are steady and low. Such low utilisation can sometimes lead to issues like tyre flat-spotting or seal degradation in components that rely on regular use to maintain optimal condition, which may partly explain the persistent tyre cut advisories. A buyer should personally inspect the condition of all four tyres in detail, looking for the specific cuts previously noted and assessing for any sidewall damage, uneven wear patterns, or age-related cracking. Given the low mileage, the suspension bushes and coil springs should be examined for signs of corrosion or deterioration from environmental exposure rather than wear. While the MOT history shows no brake binding or disc issues, the regenerative braking system on this Tesla should be verified for smooth operation. Finally, confirm the structural integrity of the underbody, particularly around the battery pack mounting points, as any impact damage or corrosion here would be a critical concern not always fully visible during a standard MOT inspection.
