2015 Ford Mondeo 2.0L Petrol · EO65 CVH

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 16 April 2026 at 62,084 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the recent failure indicates a lapse in basic oversight. Just one day prior at 62,079 miles, the tester flagged both rear tyres for having tread depths below the legal 1.6mm limit. The fact that the car passed immediately following this failure suggests the owner addressed this specific consumable issue promptly to maintain legal compliance. At 11 years old, the recorded mileage of 62,084 miles represents a low annual average of approximately 5,644 miles. This low-usage pattern is consistent across the records, showing a gap of roughly 6,000 miles between April 2025 and April 2026. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, it often leads to the degradation of rubber components due to age rather than distance. This aligns with the advisory from 57,208 miles regarding cracking and perishing on the rear tyres. A buyer should inspect the vehicle specifically for signs of age-related rubber decay, as the history highlights a recurring issue with tyre condition. Beyond the tyres, an inspection of the suspension bushes and brake hoses is necessary to check for cracking which becomes common in vehicles that sit for long periods. The record shows no structural corrosion or recurring mechanical failures over the last three years, suggesting the chassis integrity remains sound. However, the low mileage necessitates a check that the brake discs have not seized or heavily pitted from inactivity.
