2024 Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD Electric · LD73 DMS

The vehicle currently has no recorded MOT history, which is entirely consistent with its age. As a 2024 model being evaluated in September 2026, the vehicle is only two years old and has not yet reached the three-year threshold required for its first mandatory UK MOT test. Consequently, it is impossible to establish a maintenance trend or identify a history of mechanical failures from official DVSA records at this stage. The absence of data is a reflection of the vehicle's relatively new status rather than an indication of poor upkeep or a lack of structural integrity. Regarding mileage, there is currently insufficient data to calculate an annual usage rate or to identify any significant gaps in operation. Without a comparative history, it cannot be determined if the vehicle has been subjected to high-mileage motorway driving or low-mileage urban commuting. This lack of context means the buyer must rely heavily on physical inspection and service documentation to gauge the level of wear on mechanical components. Rapid mileage accumulation can lead to accelerated wear on suspension bushes and tyres, whereas very low mileage can lead to different issues such as battery degradation or brake component seizure. As there are no recorded defects or advisories to scrutinize, the inspection should focus on age-appropriate physical checks. The buyer should examine the tyres for any signs of perishing, sidewall cracking, or uneven tread wear, which may indicate either age-related rubber degradation or alignment issues. Although the regenerative braking system on this Tesla model reduces the load on the friction brakes, the brake discs can still develop surface corrosion or the calipers can become prone to binding if the vehicle has been stationary for long periods. During a test drive, pay close attention to the suspension for any clunks or knocks, which could signal issues with the coil springs or bushings, and check for any brake shudder that might indicate warped discs. Additionally, it is essential to verify the manufacturer's service history to ensure that all scheduled maintenance and software updates have been performed. Given the unknown usage profile, check the condition of the 12V auxiliary battery and look for any signs of fluid leaks from the thermal management systems. A thorough inspection of the underbody for any impact damage or early signs of corrosion is also advised. Verifying the service book stamps or digital records will be the most reliable way to confirm that the vehicle has been maintained according to the manufacturer's specifications in the absence of an MOT history.
