2007 Ford Mondeo 2.0L Petrol · EK07 MMU

This 2007 Ford Mondeo has maintained a consistent MOT pass record with no defects recorded across all five tests, most recently passing on 28 April 2025 at 124,709 miles. The absence of advisories or failings suggests the vehicle has not experienced recurring mechanical issues requiring attention during the standard MOT checks. However, the most recent test occurred just over three months ago, which is acceptable but not ideal for a vehicle of this age—given its annual mileage of approximately 6,564 miles, a more frequent inspection cycle would be prudent to preemptively address wear before it becomes critical. The mileage progression shows a steady accumulation with no unusual gaps or spikes, averaging around 1,200 miles per year over the past five tests. The longest interval between tests was between the July 2021 (116,092 miles) and May 2022 (120,763 miles) MOTs, covering roughly 12 months and 4,671 miles—still within acceptable limits for a used vehicle. There is no evidence of prolonged neglect, though the lack of service records means potential hidden wear in suspension bushes, coil springs, or drivetrain components cannot be confirmed. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of the suspension components, particularly the rear coil springs and bushes, which are prone to fatigue in a vehicle of this age. The brakes—while not flagged in MOTs—should be checked for uneven wear or binding calipers, as rear brake issues are often overlooked until they become serious. Structural integrity is another concern; the chassis and wheel arches should be examined for corrosion, especially around the sills and wheel bearings, as rust can compromise the vehicle’s safety-critical framework. Finally, the exhaust system and emissions should be visually inspected for leaks or excessive soot, as these can indicate underlying engine or catalytic converter issues.
