2008 Ford Mondeo 2.0L Diesel · AY08 WGA

The vehicle is presently road‑worthy, having passed the most recent MOT on 24 July 2025 at 195,324 miles, and the record shows a stable maintenance pattern since the isolated failure in March 2022 was resolved before the subsequent test that month. No recurring defects appear, indicating that the car’s core systems have remained compliant with the statutory standards over the last four years. Mileage has risen from 179,621 miles in March 2022 to 195,324 miles in July 2025, an average of roughly 5,200 miles per year during that interval, which aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. Earlier entries show a steady climb from 187,592 miles in March 2023 to 192,489 miles in July 2024, suggesting no abrupt spikes or prolonged periods of inactivity. The overall accumulation of 195,324 miles across 18 years translates to about 10,850 miles per annum, a figure that does not raise immediate concerns about excessive wear. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as mileage of this magnitude can introduce wear in those areas. Inspection of brake discs, pads and calipers for any signs of glazing or uneven wear is prudent, even though the MOT history records no failures. Tyre tread depth, sidewall integrity and the state of the wheel bearings merit visual and tactile checks, while a quick assessment of the exhaust system for rust or leaks will confirm that emissions remain within acceptable limits. Finally, a thorough look for surface rust on the chassis and under‑carriage will ensure that structural integrity has not been compromised. Overall, the documented MOT outcomes portray a vehicle that has been kept in compliance, with no evident long‑term mechanical or structural issues. A focused in‑person examination of the items highlighted will provide the buyer with confidence that the car’s condition matches its documented history.
