2016 FORD MONDEO1.5L Diesel

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness based on a consistently stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection on 29 January 2026 at 74,418 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a clean record from the previous three years, indicating that the mechanical and structural components have remained within acceptable DVSA operating parameters without the emergence of recurring faults often seen in Mondeos of this age. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical low-intensity usage, averaging approximately 7,400 miles per annum. Between August 2023 at 48,109 miles and August 2024 at 53,869 miles, the car covered 5,760 miles, followed by a significant spike in usage over the following year. The two tests in January 2026, conducted just 42 miles apart, suggest a re-test or a pre-purchase check performed prior to a sale. This low annual mileage generally reduces the wear on the drivetrain, turbocharger components, and complex suspension bushings. Given that the MOT history shows no recorded advisories, a physical inspection should focus on consumable wear items that do not always trigger a failure. The buyer should verify the condition of the tyres for age cracking, as low-mileage vehicles can suffer from rubber hardening over a decade. Checking the brake discs for pitting or corrosion and inspecting the underbody for surface rust is also advisable, though the lack of MOT flags suggests the structural integrity remains well-preserved.
