1993 FORD MONDEO2.0L PETROL

The 1993 Ford Mondeo has not undergone an MOT since 2007, over 15 years ago, which raises significant concerns about its current condition and compliance with safety standards. The last recorded MOT entries on 2007-04-02 show both a "PASSED" and "FAILED" result for the same date, suggesting possible administrative errors or incomplete testing. However, the failed aspects include critical safety issues: an incorrect colour on the offside front direction indicator, a non-working offside registration plate lamp, and severe tyre degradation (perished sidewall on the offside rear tyre). These indicate potential electrical faults and poor tyre maintenance. Recurring tyre issues are evident. The 2007 MOT notes "o/s/r tyre perished sidewall advise change" and "n/s/r tyre wearing outer edge," while the 2006 MOT mentions the nearside front tyre was close to the legal limit. Tyre wear patterns and degradation suggest either inconsistent use, improper inflation, or prolonged inactivity. The low annual mileage (approx. 4,313 miles/year) implies the vehicle may have been stored for extended periods, accelerating rubber component failure and increasing the risk of sudden tyre failure. The vehicle’s age (33 years) and static mileage (142,323 miles) create an ambiguous wear profile.
