2011 FORD MONDEO1.6L Diesel

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT on November 10 2025 with 54,155 miles. The maintenance trend indicates consistent upkeep, as the car has met minimum legal standards across several consecutive years. While the record shows two failures on the same days as passes, these immediate re-tests suggest that minor defects were rectified promptly by the owner without indicating deep-seated mechanical failure or structural neglect. The mileage profile is notably low for a fifteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,610 miles per year. Between the November 2023 test at 46,035 miles and the November 2024 test at 50,500 miles, the car covered only 4,465 miles. This low usage typically results in less wear on the drivetrain and engine components compared to high-mileage examples, though such low annual mileage can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based components and increased corrosion on braking surfaces if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to age-related decay rather than mileage wear. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracks or perished rubber, as low-frequency use often leaves these parts brittle. Check the brake discs and calipers for pitting or seizing, as infrequent use can prevent rust from clearing itself. Given the vehicle's age, a thorough check of the sills and wheel arches is essential to ensure that structural integrity has not been compromised despite the clean mechanical history.
