2022 Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD Electricity · MM72 FMA

The latest MOT test conducted on 24 November 2025 resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. While there was a recorded failure on 21 November 2025, the lack of specific defect data for that failure, followed immediately by a clean pass, suggests a minor issue was identified and promptly rectified. The overall maintenance trend appears stable, as the vehicle has successfully met the required safety and environmental standards without any lingering mechanical concerns or structural advisories noted in the official record. With 37,504 miles recorded over approximately four years, the vehicle has averaged roughly 9,376 miles per year. This usage profile is consistent with typical UK driving patterns and represents a balanced level of wear. It avoids the potential issues associated with very low mileage, such as component seizure or battery degradation from sitting idle, while also avoiding the heavy wear on consumables like suspension bushes, tyres, and braking systems that characterizes high-mileage vehicles. This moderate usage suggests the drivetrain and chassis components should be in a healthy state of preservation. As the MOT history is clean, your inspection should focus on age-related degradation and time-based maintenance. Closely examine the tyres for any signs of perishing or sidewall cracking, which can occur due to age and UV exposure even if tread depth remains sufficient. Check for uneven tyre wear, which may indicate issues with wheel alignment or worn suspension components. During your test drive, pay attention to the braking performance; listen for any signs of binding calipers or unusual noises from the brake discs, and feel for any shuddering that might indicate warped or heavily corroded rotors. Given the vehicle's age, it is also essential to verify that time-sensitive maintenance has been carried out. Check the health of the 12V auxiliary battery, as these components can lose capacity over a four-year period. Inspect the underside of the vehicle for any signs of fluid leaks from the thermal management system or drive units. Listen carefully for any knocks or clunks from the suspension when driving over uneven surfaces, which could indicate the onset of wear in the coil springs or bushings. Finally, confirm the service history is documented to ensure that cabin filters and other essential fluids have been managed according to the manufacturer's time-based intervals.
