2019 Tesla Model X Standard Range AWD Electric · LG69 PPY

This Tesla Model X shows a stable roadworthiness trend over the past two years, with no defects recorded in the most recent MOT test conducted on 29 May 2025 at 54,145 miles. The vehicle passed all checks without advisories, suggesting the tester found no evidence of binding calipers, excessive corrosion in critical areas, or failing suspension components during that inspection. The 2023 test cycle is unusual—with a failed MOT on 13 October at 51,872 miles followed by an immediate retest on 16 October at the same mileage—yet no defects were logged in either instance, indicating either a minor administrative oversight or a system quirk rather than a recurring mechanical issue. The lack of advisories or repeated failures points to consistent compliance with emissions standards and structural integrity checks, though the absence of any recorded issues does not preclude hidden wear in high-stress areas like the suspension bushes or drivetrain seals. The mileage progression suggests typical usage patterns for a vehicle of this age, averaging around 7,700 miles annually with no abrupt spikes or prolonged periods of inactivity. The gap between the 2022 test at 36,974 miles and the 2023 failure/retest at 51,872 miles indicates roughly 14,800 miles in under a year, which aligns with moderate usage rather than aggressive driving. There are no red flags in the mileage pattern to suggest neglect or excessive wear beyond standard expectations for a seven-year-old vehicle. However, the lack of intermediate MOTs—such as those typically expected at 30,000-mile intervals—means there is no external verification of maintenance between tests, leaving some uncertainty about whether routine servicing (e.g., brake fluid changes, suspension inspections) was performed. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of the suspension components, particularly the coil springs, bushes, and shock absorbers, as these are common wear items not always flagged in standard MOT tests. The absence of advisories does not guarantee there are no binding calipers or uneven tyre wear, which could indicate misaligned wheels or worn suspension parts. Examine the brake discs and pads for uneven thickness or corrosion, as electric vehicles often experience different thermal stress patterns. Additionally, inspect the underbody for corrosion around the battery compartment and wheel arches, as high-voltage systems can accelerate rust in certain conditions. The lack of recorded faults does not rule out degraded seals in the drivetrain or cooling system, so checking for fluid leaks or unusual noises under acceleration or braking would be prudent.
