2022 Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD Electric · RT04 DMB

The latest MOT test conducted on 4 June 2026 resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a previous clean pass in May 2025, indicating a highly stable maintenance trend. The absence of any recorded advisories or failures over the last two inspection cycles suggests that the vehicle has been kept in a condition that meets the necessary safety and environmental standards without requiring immediate mechanical intervention or remedial work. The recorded mileage of 31,073 miles for a four-year-old vehicle represents an annual usage rate of approximately 7,768 miles. This is considered moderate to low mileage, which is generally positive for the longevity of consumable components such as suspension bushings, steering linkages, and drivetrain elements. This usage profile suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to the heavy wear associated with high-mileage commercial or high-intensity long-distance commuting, though it is important to note that lower mileage can sometimes lead to other issues related to infrequent use. As the MOT history is clean and the mileage is relatively low, your physical inspection should focus on age-related degradation rather than mechanical wear. You should pay close attention to the tyres, checking the sidewalls for any signs of perishing, cracking, or dry rot, which can occur even if the tread depth is substantial. Additionally, inspect the brake discs for excessive corrosion or pitting, a common occurrence in vehicles that are not driven frequently enough to naturally clear oxidation through friction. During your test drive, listen for any signs of binding calipers or unusual noises from the suspension, such as clunks or knocks, which could indicate that rubber components have hardened or perished due to age. Finally, ensure you verify the service history to confirm that all manufacturer-recommended checks have been performed, particularly regarding the thermal management systems and the high-voltage battery health. Since the vehicle has relatively low annual mileage, it is also prudent to check the condition of the 12V auxiliary battery, as these can lose charge or capacity if the vehicle remains stationary for long periods. Confirm that the vehicle's electronic systems operate smoothly without any voltage-related glitches and check the underside for any signs of fluid leaks from the drive units or cooling systems to ensure long-term structural and mechanical integrity.
