Our Verdict
This 2015 Ford Mondeo shows mixed reliability signals. While recent MOTs indicate generally good maintenance, recurring tyre and brake issues suggest potential hidden costs. A thorough pre-purchase inspection is essential.
Prioritise checking the condition of all four tyres, as repeated wear issues have been recorded. Inspect brake discs and pads for excessive wear, particularly the front inner components noted in 2025. Verify service history for regular maintenance, especially brake and tyre replacements. Negotiate based on the 2024 MOT failure and high mileage, which may indicate accelerated wear. Be cautious of potential hidden costs from repeated tyre replacements and brake repairs.
Diesel fuel economy for the 2.0L engine is typically 40-45 mpg, resulting in £800-£1,000 annual fuel costs at 7,000 miles. Road tax in 2026 is £155 annually for diesel vehicles. Insurance group 14-15 is average for this model. Major maintenance costs could reach £500-£700 every 3-4 years for brake repairs. Total estimated annual running costs: £1,400-£1,700.
Focus on tyre condition, particularly the nearside front tyre that failed in 2024. Check for uneven wear patterns or damage to the offside front tyre. Inspect brake discs for warping or excessive thinning, and measure brake pad thickness. Test the tyre pressure monitoring system functionality. Examine suspension components for wear, as repeated tyre issues may indicate alignment problems. Review service records for consistency in maintenance.
The 2015 Ford Mondeo has a largely passable MOT history but shows recurring tyre and brake wear. At 102,035 miles, its mileage is above average for its age. The vehicle has no major structural issues recorded, but the 2024 MOT failure highlights ongoing maintenance needs.
No aggregate data available for Ford Mondeo, but this vehicle shows typical wear patterns for its age with no major systemic issues reported.
