2011 Ford Mondeo Zetec Tdci 140 2.0L Diesel · BXZ 6103

The vehicle demonstrates a highly stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by five consecutive clean MOT passes between October 2021 and October 2025. The most recent test on 24 October 2025 at 138,449 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded, indicating that the vehicle has been maintained to a consistent standard. The absence of any recorded faults over this four-year period suggests a proactive approach to servicing and a lack of chronic mechanical neglect. The recorded mileage of 138,449 over a fifteen-year lifespan averages approximately 9,230 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage patterns for a diesel Mondeo. Annual mileage accumulation has remained remarkably consistent, with the vehicle covering roughly 7,000 to 9,000 miles between each inspection. This steady usage profile is generally preferable to long periods of inactivity, as it suggests the engine, turbocharger, and diesel particulate filter have undergone regular heat cycles, reducing the risk of seized components or fluid degradation. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on areas not always captured by the MOT test, specifically the condition of the dual-mass flywheel and clutch assembly, as these are common wear items on the 140hp TDCi powertrain at this mileage. While the MOT history is clean, check the underside for surface corrosion on the rear subframe and brake lines, as these are frequent failure points on Mondeos of this vintage. Inspect the engine bay for signs of oil leaks around the rocker cover or intercooler hoses, as the MOT tester primarily evaluates safety-critical items rather than the long-term health of the auxiliary systems. Given the clean record, the vehicle appears to have been well-cared for, but a thorough test drive is necessary to verify the smoothness of the gear changes and the responsiveness of the turbocharger.
