2015 FORD MONDEO2.0L Diesel

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean recent history. The most recent test on 20 November 2025 at 44,637 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a successful retest on 5 December 2024, which corrected a failure regarding front brake pads measuring less than 1.5 mm thick. The absence of advisories in the last two years suggests that the vehicle is currently maintained to a high standard and that mechanical issues are being addressed promptly upon detection. The mileage pattern indicates exceptionally low usage for an 11-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,058 miles per year. The data shows a consistent, albeit slow, accumulation of distance, moving from 14,278 miles in October 2020 to 44,637 miles in November 2025. While low mileage typically implies less wear on the drivetrain and suspension, the long intervals between tests and the low annual distance suggest the car may spend significant periods stationary. This can occasionally lead to secondary issues such as tyre flat-spotting or battery degradation, though the MOT record does not specifically flag these. The historical record shows minor consumable issues rather than systemic mechanical failures. The tester flagged nails in the offside rear tyre in both June 2018 and September 2021, which are typical minor occurrences. The only significant failure occurred in December 2024 due to worn front brake pads. Because the vehicle has been driven so sparingly, a buyer should specifically inspect the condition of rubber components, such as suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls, for signs of age-related cracking or perishing. A physical inspection should also verify the condition of the braking system to ensure the replacement pads in late 2024 were part of a complete service. Given the low mileage, checking for any signs of fluid leaks or corrosion on the underside is advisable, as vehicles that sit idle can sometimes develop surface rust on exhaust components or brake discs. Overall, the documentation reflects a well-kept vehicle with a predictable and manageable maintenance trend.
