2025 Tesla Model 3 Long Range RWD Electric · MV25 AAJ

The DVSA database shows no MOT record for the 2025 Tesla Model 3 Long‑Range RWD, meaning there is no recent test outcome to reference and consequently no trend—stable, worsening or improving—to evaluate from official results. In the absence of an MOT history the vehicle’s roadworthiness must be judged on visual inspection, service documentation and on‑road behaviour rather than on statutory pass/fail data. Mileage for this example is not supplied, so an objective comparison to the vehicle’s age cannot be made. A 2025 Model 3 that is three years old would typically have accumulated between 12 000 and 30 000 miles if used as a primary family car, whereas a low‑usage, secondary vehicle might sit well below 10 000 miles. Without a recorded odometer reading the buyer should ask the seller for any supporting evidence – such as charging session logs, service invoices or a digital mileage read‑out from the vehicle’s instrument cluster – to confirm whether the car has been lightly used or has experienced high annual mileage, the latter potentially accelerating wear on suspension bushings, tyre tread and brake components. Given the lack of MOT data and an unknown mileage figure, a thorough physical examination is essential. Inspect the tyre sidewalls for cracking, dry‑rot or age‑related hardening, as rubber can deteriorate after six years even on low‑kilometre tyres; verify tread depth is within legal limits and that the tyres are of the correct specification for the Model 3. Examine the under‑carriage for corrosion, especially around the battery pack mounting points and suspension sub‑frames, and check that the brake discs are free of excessive rust, pitting or scoring that could indicate prolonged inactivity. The high‑voltage battery should be assessed for health via the vehicle’s onboard diagnostics – a modest drop in range compared with the original specification may signal early cell degradation, and the coolant reservoir should be inspected for leaks or low level, as the thermal management system is critical to battery longevity. On a test drive listen for any unusual whine from the electric motor or inverter, and feel for any vibration or torque ripple that could point to drivetrain imbalance. Pay attention to steering feel; a pull to one side or a loose sensation may reveal worn steering rack bushings or misalignment. Apply the brakes firmly at moderate speed; any pulsation, shudder or uneven pedal feel could indicate warped discs or a binding caliper, which are more likely if the car has sat idle for long periods. Finally, confirm that the vehicle’s software is up‑to‑date, that all recall work (for example the MCU or seat‑belt pretensioner updates that have affected recent Model 3s) has been completed, and that the original battery warranty remains in force, as this will protect the buyer from costly battery‑related repairs in the near future.
