2018 Ford Mondeo 2.0L Diesel · AF18 ADX

This Ford Mondeo presents an exceptionally stable maintenance profile. The most recent MOT on 19 June 2025 at 81,891 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to March 2022, indicating a vehicle that has been kept in a roadworthy state without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical UK usage for an eight year old vehicle. Between March 2022 and June 2025, the odometer rose from 45,657 to 81,891 miles. The most significant increase occurred between July 2024 and June 2025, where the vehicle covered 11,046 miles in under a year. This suggests a period of heavier use, but the lack of new advisories during this window implies the car handled the increased load without immediate degradation of key components. The record shows a single failure on 24 March 2023 at 57,965 miles, though it passed the same day. Since no specific defects were listed in the provided data for that failure, it likely related to a minor rectification. The absence of any mentions of corrosion, suspension bush wear, or brake disc deterioration over the last four tests is uncommon for a vehicle of this age and mileage. A physical inspection should focus on standard wear items that MOT testers often overlook if they are within legal limits. Check the depth of the tyre treads and the condition of the brake pads, as the clean record suggests these may be nearing the end of their service life without having been flagged as failures yet. Inspect the underside for any signs of surface rust or fluid leaks that would not necessarily trigger an MOT failure but could indicate future maintenance requirements.
