2021 Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD Electricity · MW71 LLX

The most recent MOT, conducted on 2025-12-06 at 39,948 miles, revealed several issues including inner brake discs that were worn, pitted, or scored but not seriously weakened. A nearside front tyre had a cut not deep enough to expose cords, while the offside rear upper suspension arm bush showed wear without excessive movement. The offside front tyre also exhibited low inner edge wear. These findings indicate ongoing minor wear on braking and suspension components, as well as tyre condition. The 2024-12-05 MOT, at 29,956 miles, noted similar brake disc wear (front and rear) but no other specific issues. This suggests a recurring pattern of brake disc degradation, though neither report classified the wear as critical. The 2025 MOT added new concerns about suspension and tyre alignment, which may reflect gradual deterioration or changes in driving conditions. The vehicle’s mileage of 39,948 miles over five years aligns with an average of ~8,000 miles annually, but the 10,000-mile increase between the 2024 and 2025 MOTs could indicate heavier usage. This might accelerate wear on consumables like brakes and tyres, though the absence of major defects in either MOT suggests the vehicle has not yet reached a critical failure point. The trend appears stable, with no new serious faults introduced since 2024.
