2005 Ford Mondeo 1.8L Petrol · AX54 OYP

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a history of clean passes over the last four years. The most recent MOT test conducted in February 2022 at 127,776 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the car met all minimum safety standards at that time. This follows a period of consecutive clean passes dating back to 2019, excluding a single failure that year, suggesting that the previous owners maintained the vehicle sufficiently to avoid mechanical failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-mileage vehicle of its age, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per year. Between February 2019 and February 2022, the car covered 21,053 miles, representing a steady rate of use. However, there is a significant gap in the records as the last recorded MOT was performed over four years ago. Given the current date of June 2026, the vehicle's roadworthiness status is lapsed, and the mechanical condition of components such as rubber bushes, tyres, and brake lines cannot be verified based on the 2022 data. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on structural areas prone to age-related degradation, particularly the rear sills, floor pans, and wheel arches where corrosion often develops. Because the car has sat without a recorded test for several years, the risk of seized calipers or perished rubber components is high. Inspect the suspension for worn coil springs or cracked bushings, and check the braking system for leaks or fluid ingress resulting from long periods of inactivity. A fresh MOT is mandatory to determine if any structural or mechanical faults have emerged since the 2022 entry.
