Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2019 Tesla Model X Perform Ludicrous AWD?

The 2019 Tesla Model X Perform Ludicrous is slightly more reliable than average, with an 82.6% first-time pass rate versus the UK average of 80%, but nearly a third of these vehicles (32.2%) have recorded dangerous defects at some point—a significantly higher proportion than typical, which buyers should take seriously. This suggests electrical or structural issues are more common than expected in this high-performance variant.

At 42,600 miles median for a five-year-old vehicle, these cars have been driven moderately and show an average of only 0.65 failures per test, indicating most pass with relatively few major faults once they reach the test station. However, the high advisory rate of 4.0 per vehicle points to accumulated minor wear items and electrical gremlins typical of EVs; when shopping for a used example, insist on a full diagnostic focusing on battery management systems, suspension components, and any history of previous dangerous defect flags.

We have limited data for the 2019 Tesla Model X Perform Ludicrous AWD — treat the figures below as indicative rather than definitive.
