2001 FORD MONDEO2.0L DIESEL

The vehicle's roadworthiness is currently unverifiable as the provided MOT history terminates abruptly over fourteen years ago. The last recorded test in November 2011 at 117,995 miles showed a pass following minor electrical failures related to lighting. However, because there is no testing data since 2011, it is impossible to determine the current mechanical integrity or safety status of the vehicle as of June 2026. The recorded mileage of 117,995 miles over 25 years represents a very low annual usage rate of approximately 4,700 miles per year. Between November 2009 and November 2010, the car covered 9,077 miles, which suggests a period of higher activity. While low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, the long gap in service records often indicates the degradation of rubber-based components, seals, and brake fluid due to age rather than use, which is not captured in mileage-based metrics. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection focusing on the areas that previously showed signs of neglect. The November 2010 failure flagged an offside front tyre worn on the inner edge and excessive smoke from the turbo engine, indicating potential alignment issues and internal turbocharger wear or injector faults. The parking brake lever having little reserve travel in that same test suggests the cables or adjustment mechanism required attention. Given the vehicle's age and the lack of recent documentation, a detailed check for structural corrosion on the sills and suspension mounting is critical before any purchase.
