2018 Tesla Model S Electricity · MA18 SVT

The vehicle's overall roadworthiness is currently stable, as evidenced by the consistent PASSED status across all recorded MOT entries from 2021 to 2025. The maintenance trend is considered stable, with no signs of a deteriorating or resolving pattern, as the test dates and mileage remain relatively consistent throughout the period. Regarding the mileage pattern, the vehicle has experienced a significant accumulation of recorded miles over eight years, reaching 30,480 miles at the most recent inspection. While this figure is low for a 2018 model, it is consistent with a vehicle that has been used for extended periods or maintained on a lighter schedule, suggesting the wear on the drivetrain and suspension is not accelerating rapidly. The gap between the 2021 and 2025 tests indicates that the mileage has not been increasing at a rate that would suggest a sudden mechanical failure. Given the consistent PASSED status and the relatively low mileage, the primary concern is the wear on consumables such as tyres and wiper blades, which are typically neglected in older vehicles. The tester flagged binding rear brakes and worn brake discs in the 2025 test, indicating that the braking system may require routine inspection to ensure the wheels remain in contact with the road surface. While the structural integrity of the chassis and suspension components appears sound based on the absence of defects, the specific wear on brake components and the need for periodic checks on the suspension bushings and coil springs are critical factors to address before the vehicle is taken into the MOT again.
