2015 Ford Mondeo 2.0L Petrol · EA65 JVT

The 2015 Ford Mondeo presents a completely stable maintenance trend, culminating in a flawless pass at its most recent MOT on 21 October 2025 at 34,608 miles. The tester recorded zero defects, indicating the vehicle currently meets all required safety and environmental standards. This unbroken string of clean certificates over the last five years demonstrates consistent mechanical reliability rather than a sudden improvement or deterioration. Accumulating just 34,608 miles over eleven years equates to roughly 3,146 miles annually, a notably low figure for a family saloon. The annual increments remain remarkably steady, moving from 28,025 miles in October 2021 to 34,608 miles in October 2025, averaging approximately 1,650 miles per year across that window. Such minimal use suggests the previous owner utilized the car for short, sporadic trips rather than long motorway commutes, which can sometimes lead to premature deterioration of consumables like rubber suspension bushes and brake components due to a lack of sustained heat cycling. Despite the pristine MOT record, a physical inspection remains essential given the vehicle's age and low mileage profile. Prolonged periods of inactivity can cause brake discs to surface corrode and calipers to bind, even if they passed the roller test recently. Inspect the tyre sidewalls for perishing and date stamps, as tread depth often remains high on low-mileage cars while the rubber compound degrades with age. Check the suspension bushes for cracking and examine the exhaust system for corrosion, as short journeys prevent the exhaust from reaching optimal operating temperature to burn off accumulated moisture.
