2019 Tesla Model 3 Standard Range + Electricity · SL19 ARH

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive rather than preventative care. The most recent test in September 2025 at 37,750 miles passed but introduced advisories for a worn offside front tyre and a pitted nearside front brake disc. This follows two years of clean records in 2023 and 2024, indicating that components are now beginning to require attention after a period of relatively stable operation. At 37,750 miles over seven years, the car has covered a low annual average of approximately 5,400 miles. This low-mile usage typically suggests less mechanical strain on the drivetrain, but it can also lead to specific issues. Between September 2022 and September 2023, the vehicle covered only 6,264 miles, yet it failed an MOT in September 2023 due to suspension bush wear and tyre issues. This suggests that long periods of standing or short trips may have contributed to the rubber-related component failures. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the front suspension geometry. The September 2023 failure flagged excessively worn nearside front suspension arm bushes. While the vehicle passed subsequently, the recurring nature of tyre wear on the edges suggests the alignment or bushing integrity should be monitored closely. The 2025 advisory regarding the scored and pitted nearside front brake disc is common in low-mileage EVs where brakes are not used frequently enough to prevent surface corrosion or to clean the rotors. The front tyres are also a priority for physical inspection, as the 2025 test noted the offside tyre nearing the legal limit. Given the history of uneven edge wear, the buyer should verify the wheel alignment is within specification. Beyond these consumable items, the record shows no structural defects or major mechanical failures, suggesting the primary components remain sound despite the minor wear on the front-end hardware.
