2019 Ford Mondeo 2.0L Diesel · FA19 AWF

The most recent MOT test on 2026-07-02 —just five days prior to today—confirms the vehicle passed without any defects, though the record also shows a duplicate entry for the same date, both marked as pass/fail at identical mileage. This suggests either an administrative error in the DVSA system or a brief, unresolved administrative hold rather than a genuine mechanical issue. The preceding test in 2025-07-03 similarly showed no defects, reinforcing a stable pattern of compliance with MOT standards over the past year. However, the absence of advisories or minor faults in any of the tests implies that while the vehicle meets current roadworthiness criteria, there is no documented history of pre-existing concerns that might warrant closer scrutiny. The recorded mileage of 156,709 miles at the latest test date indicates an average of approximately 22,387 miles per year , which is unusually high for a seven-year-old vehicle. Comparing this to the previous test in 2024-07-03 at 142,291 miles , the car accumulated 14,418 miles in just under a year , a rate that exceeds typical annual mileage for this class of vehicle. This rapid accumulation could imply consistent heavy usage, which may have accelerated wear on suspension components, brake systems, or drivetrain elements. The gap between tests is consistent at one year, but the lack of advisories in any of them means there is no evidence of deferred maintenance or recurring issues that might have been flagged. Given the clean MOT history without advisories, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of suspension bushes and coil springs , particularly at the rear where binding or uneven wear is common under high mileage. The brake system—especially rear calipers and discs—should be checked for excessive heat fade or uneven wear, as high mileage often correlates with increased brake component stress. Structural integrity, particularly around wheel arches and sills, should also be assessed for corrosion, as seven years of exposure to varying conditions could have contributed to hidden rust. While the vehicle has not failed any tests, these areas are typically the first to show signs of accelerated wear beyond what would be expected from standard usage.
