2022 Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD Electric · MA22 XTN

This Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD, tested most recently on 27 June 2025 at 68,201 miles, achieved a clean MOT pass with no defects recorded. The absence of advisories or failings in the single available test suggests the vehicle met all current UK roadworthiness standards at that point. However, the lack of prior MOT history prevents a full trend analysis, though the most recent result implies no immediate mechanical or structural concerns were detected. The vehicle’s electric powertrain components—battery health, inverter, and high-voltage systems—are not directly assessed in an MOT, so their condition remains unverified beyond the tester’s cursory inspection for electrical faults or fire risks. The recorded mileage of 68,201 miles over approximately four years indicates an average of around 17,050 miles annually, which is unusually high for a vehicle of this age. While high mileage alone does not guarantee excessive wear, it does suggest accelerated consumption of friction-based components such as brake pads, tyres, and suspension bushes. The absence of earlier MOT tests means there is no historical context to determine whether this mileage accumulation has been consistent or whether the vehicle has undergone significant servicing outside the MOT cycle. Buyers should note that such mileage rates may correlate with higher usage of consumables, particularly in areas like brake discs and calipers, which could require closer inspection. Given the sparse MOT record, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of high-wear items such as the brake system—particularly the rear calipers and discs, which are prone to binding or uneven wear under high mileage—and the suspension components, including coil springs and bushes for signs of fatigue or corrosion. The tyres, while not MOT-failed, should be checked for uneven tread wear, which could indicate alignment issues or aggressive driving habits. The absence of prior tests also means there is no record of whether the vehicle has undergone regular servicing, so the condition of the electric motor, drivetrain seals, and battery cooling system should be scrutinised, especially if the vehicle has been subjected to extreme temperatures or heavy loads. The structural integrity of the battery pack and its mounting should also be verified, as electric vehicles are more susceptible to long-term corrosion or impact damage in this area.
