2013 FORD MONDEO2.2L DIESEL

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, though the maintenance trend shows a slight shift toward reactive upkeep. The most recent test in August 2025 at 83,951 miles resulted in a pass despite flagging both the nearside and offside front inner tyres as worn close to the legal limit and showing edge wear. This indicates that while the mechanical components are currently passing, the owner has neglected basic consumable replacements until they reached the threshold of an MOT advisory. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 6,458 miles per year. Between August 2021 and August 2025, the car covered 18,683 miles, representing a steady and predictable usage rate. There are no significant gaps in the testing history to suggest long periods of abandonment, and the clean records from 2021, 2022, and 2024 suggest the structural integrity and primary drivetrain have not been subjected to the stress associated with high-mileage cycles. A buyer should specifically inspect the front suspension and alignment settings, as the edge wear noted in the 2025 test often indicates poor tracking geometry or worn suspension bushes. While the vehicle passed without defects in several previous years, the age of the car means rubber components and brake lines may be prone to degradation regardless of the low mileage. A physical inspection of the chassis for corrosion, particularly on the underbody and wheel arches is necessary to ensure the low usage has not masked underlying structural decay.
