2002 Ford Mondeo 2.0L Diesel · CN02 BCE

The 2002 Ford Mondeo presents a stable roadworthiness profile, with all six MOT tests from 2022 to 2026 recording no defects. The most recent January 2026 test at 93,628 miles confirmed compliance, reinforcing a consistent maintenance pattern. No recurring issues or structural concerns were flagged across the five-year history, indicating the vehicle has been well-maintained within its low annual mileage range. The mileage progression shows a gradual increase of approximately 3,500–4,000 miles annually, aligning with the car’s age but remaining below average for its 24-year lifespan. Tests spaced 12–14 months apart suggest regular servicing, though the absence of detailed defect reports limits insight into minor wear. Notably, the 2024–2026 tests occurred within 10 months of each other, reflecting recent diligence but offering no evidence of accelerated deterioration. A buyer should verify suspension components, as low mileage can lead to stiffness in bushes and coil springs. Inspect brake systems for corrosion or binding, particularly if the vehicle has been stationary for extended periods. Check underbody panels for rust, as infrequent use may exacerbate corrosion. While the MOT history shows no critical faults, these areas warrant physical scrutiny to confirm the vehicle’s condition matches its recorded maintenance trend.
