2018 Ford Mondeo 2.0L Diesel · CX68 BGO

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy state based on the most recent MOT pass on 28 November 2025 at 100,708 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the record shows a consistent pattern of passing tests without any recorded defects or advisories. This lack of flagged issues suggests the car has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards for several years. The mileage is high for an eight year old vehicle, averaging roughly 12,588 miles per year. There was a significant increase in usage between November 2023 and November 2024, where the odometer rose from 81,806 to 92,127 miles. A further 8,581 miles were added by the November 2025 test. This level of accumulation typically accelerates the wear of drivetrain components and suspension bushings. The absence of recorded defects across multiple years is unusual for a high-mileage Mondeo. A buyer should physically inspect the brake discs and pads for thinning, as the records do not mention replacements despite the 100,000-mile threshold. Particular attention must be paid to the suspension coil springs and shock absorbers, which often degrade under this level of road use. Check for underside corrosion and the condition of the exhaust system. While the MOT record is clean, these areas are prone to age-related deterioration that may not always trigger a failure until the damage is severe. Verify the service history to ensure oil changes and timing belt intervals align with the high mileage, as the MOT only confirms basic roadworthiness rather than comprehensive mechanical health.
