FORD MONDEO2016 · 2.0L Diesel

This Ford Mondeo presents a stable and exceptionally clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 9 February 2026 at 85,641 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to early 2023, suggesting a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has avoided common age-related degradation. The mileage accumulation aligns with typical usage for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 8,564 miles per year. The distance covered between tests has remained relatively steady, though there was a notable increase in usage between February 2023 at 63,052 miles and February 2024 at 72,392 miles. A brief failure on 5 February 2024 was resolved within two days, and the lack of recorded defects in the subsequent tests indicates the issue was likely minor and quickly rectified. The absence of recurring advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake disc corrosion, or exhaust emissions is unusual for a vehicle of this age. While the DVSA record is clean, a buyer should still physically inspect the underbody for structural corrosion, particularly around the sills and suspension mounting points, as these are common failure points for this model that may not always trigger a failure until they become critical. Check the condition of the tyres and brake pads during a physical inspection. Since the MOT history shows no defects, these consumables are likely within legal limits, but they may be nearing the end of their service life. Verifying the service history against the mileage increments will confirm if the owner adhered to the manufacturer's oil change intervals alongside the MOT cycle.
