This 2018 Tesla has 10 MOT tests on record with a 90% pass rate and 29,218 miles. The high insurance group and high mileage for its age are further red flags.
The vehicle exhibits high annual usage, averaging 23,673 miles per year, significantly above the UK average of 8,000, with no suspicious drops or inconsistencies.
Things to check
- Dangerous Offside Rear Tyre tear (Apr 2021) indicates severe neglect of critical safety components.
- Recurring tyre advisories (Apr 2021, Jan 2025, Jul 2025) and brake pad advisories (Jan 2025, Jul 2025) suggest chronic wear.
- High annual mileage (23,673 mi/yr) for an 8-year-old car will accelerate component wear.
- Offside Rear Tyre tear (Apr 2021) was a DANGEROUS defect, a serious safety failure.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until January 2027, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects recorded.
- Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or inconsistencies.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering.
