2023 Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD Electric · SB23 OUV

A spotless MOT record to date indicates that, across the sole test performed, no mechanical or safety defects were identified, suggesting the vehicle has met the statutory roadworthiness criteria without recorded issues. The 2026‑09‑09 pass, recorded as defect‑free, provides the only data point but establishes a baseline of compliance for the current age of the car. With 21,776 mi logged since its first registration in early 2023, the annual average of roughly 7,200 mi aligns with typical usage for a three‑year‑old family SUV. The mileage progression appears steady, with no large jumps or prolonged gaps between testing intervals, meaning consumable wear items such as tyre tread, brake pads and regenerative‑brake components are likely to be within normal wear limits for this mileage band. Although the MOT history shows no failures, prospective buyers should still verify the condition of the high‑voltage battery pack and its thermal management system. Listen for any abnormal whine or hum from the electric motor under acceleration, and monitor the state‑of‑charge versus expected range during a short drive; a sudden drop in range could signal cell imbalance or cooling inefficiency. Inspect the charging inlet and cable connectors for signs of corrosion, loose contacts or physical damage, and confirm that the vehicle accepts a full charge without error codes. A conventional road‑worthiness check remains essential: examine tyre tread depth and uniform wear, ensure the steering feels free of play and does not pull to one side, and test the hydraulic brakes for consistent pedal feel and absence of judder. Verify that all exterior lighting, indicators and safety‑critical systems operate correctly, and watch for any rattles or clunks over bumps that might reveal worn suspension bushes or loose subframe bolts, even though none have been recorded in the MOT data.
