2013 Ford Mondeo 2.0L Diesel · PO13 AMY

The 2013 Ford Mondeo presents a stable roadworthiness profile, with the most recent MOT on 2025-07-09 at 168,396 miles recording no defects. Previous tests from 2024-07-06 (159,211 miles) and 2023-07-10 (151,184 miles) also passed without issues, though a duplicate entry for 2023-07-10 notes a failure with no defects recorded, which may indicate an administrative error. The absence of recurring mechanical or structural faults in the last three years suggests consistent maintenance, though the vehicle’s high mileage—12,954 miles annually—demands scrutiny of wear-prone components. The mileage progression shows regular annual testing with steady accumulation, from 146,543 miles in 2022 to 168,396 miles in 2025. No significant gaps or abrupt spikes in mileage are evident, reflecting predictable usage. However, the vehicle’s age and high annual average imply accelerated wear on consumables like tyres and brake pads, alongside potential fatigue in suspension systems and drivetrain components. The MOT history lacks advisories or critical failures, indicating no immediate safety risks but highlighting the need for proactive inspection of high-mileage systems. A buyer should prioritise checking suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs for wear, given the vehicle’s mileage and age. The absence of corrosion reports in the MOT record is positive, but a physical inspection for rust on chassis or body seams is advisable. Brake systems, particularly rear calipers and discs, should be assessed for binding or uneven wear, as these often emerge under high-mileage conditions. The exhaust system and engine mounts may also require attention, as prolonged use can degrade these components without triggering immediate MOT failures.
