YouTuber SamCrac bought an aging Tesla Model S P90D at auction listed as dead for just over $10,000 and then brought it back to life surprisingly easily.
The Tesla Model S is the most important electric vehicle of the last 20 years, but it rarely makes headlines anymore, even though it was the world’s best-selling electric vehicle for a couple of years, dethroning the much more affordable Nissan Leaf. It was quite an expensive car, and higher trim level models easily exceeded $100,000 when new, which is why it’s surprising to see how cheap you can get one these days.
Sam thinks the car was probably repossessed, and after sitting unused waiting to go to auction, its battery became fully drained and they were unable to get the door handles to pop out—they probably first listed it as “dead,” then, after it sat for a while, they also wrote “no access” on the windscreen. What’s remarkable about this story is that the car was, in fact, very much alive, and all it really needed was some suspension work.
