2014 Tesla Model S Electricity · RE14 WRT

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile having passed its most recent MOT on August 16, 2024 with no recorded defects. While the current status is clean, the history reveals a recurring pattern of failing due to poor consumable management. The tester failed in both 2022 and 2024 because of insufficient tread depth on the rear tyres, indicating that previous owners only addressed tyre replacement upon reaching the legal limit rather than performing preventative maintenance. At 134,520 miles, this twelve-year-old Model S has averaged approximately 11,210 miles per year, which aligns with typical UK usage patterns for this age. The data shows consistent use, with 12,712 miles covered between the 2022 and 2023 tests, and another 12,107 miles recorded between 2023 and 2024. This steady accumulation suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of standing, which is generally beneficial for rubber-based components and battery health. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the rear suspension geometry and tyre alignment. The repeated failures regarding inner-edge wear in August 2022 and low tread depth in August 2024 suggest potential alignment issues or worn control arm bushings that cause uneven scrubbing. Given the mileage and the weight of the vehicle, checking for play in the wish arms and inspecting the coil springs is essential to ensure these components are not nearing the end of their service life.
