2006 Ford Mondeo 2.2L Diesel · CV06 NWT

The 2006 Ford Mondeo presents as roadworthy following a clean pass on 19 May 2025 at 36,073 miles, with the maintenance trend stable across the recorded history. The most recent test showed no defects, and the prior four annual examinations returned passes with no advisories. This pattern indicates consistent statutory compliance, though the May 2025 record includes a failed test on 16 May 2025 at 36,062 miles with no defects logged, a clerical or administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Recorded mileage sits at 36,073 against an age of nearly twenty years, an average of roughly 1,800 miles per year. The odometer moved only 558 miles between the May 2022 test at 34,515 and the May 2023 test at 35,232, then 241 miles to April 2024 at 35,473, and 600 miles to May 2025 at 36,073. Such low, steady accumulation points to light use or extended standing periods. The sparse clean record gives no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred repairs, but sparse testing offers limited diagnostic depth on wear items. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and likely long idle spells. Standing vehicles commonly develop perished rubber components and surface corrosion on structural members even when MOT tests record no advisories. The twin May 2025 entries suggest the owner addressed the administrative failure promptly, implying reasonable diligence. Verify the underside for structural rust and check tyre sidewalls for cracking from disuse. The absence of flagged defects across five years does not exempt a twenty-year-old Mondeo from age-related degradation invisible to a pass-only test.
