2015 Ford Mondeo 2.0L Diesel · EK65 BXY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach to repairs. While the most recent test in December 2025 at 93,570 miles passed, it followed a significant failure just one day prior. The trend shows a pattern where critical safety components, such as brakes and tyres, are only addressed once they reach legal failure limits. The presence of worn front suspension arm bushes on the latest advisory suggests that components are beginning to reach the end of their functional life and require imminent attention. The mileage profile is consistent with an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,500 miles per year. The car progressed steadily from 66,118 miles in November 2022 to 93,570 miles in December 2025, representing a regular usage pattern of roughly 9,000 miles annually that recently. This consistent mileage suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stagnation, which helps preserve rubber components, though the data also confirms that wear-related items are being neglected between the annual testing intervals. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the front suspension and braking system, as the record repeatedly flags worn bushes and degraded hardware. The failure in December 2025 for seriously weakened brake discs and thin pads indicates that the previous owner ignored obvious wear until the vehicle was unroad. The buyer should specifically check for lateral play in the front control arms and verify that the recent brake work was carried out thoroughly with high-quality parts. Given the history of inoperative registration lamps and blown bulbs, a full test of the lighting circuit and tyre pressures is necessary to ensure no further minor defects remain.
