Our Verdict
A strong recommendation based on an exce
When inspecting this vehicle, prioritise reviewing the service history to confirm that the timing belt and water pump have been replaced, as these are critical maintenance items for the 2.0L TDCI engine at this age. Ensure there is evidence of regular oil changes to protect the turbocharger.
Given the 'Business Edition' trim, check the interior for wear and tear consistent with fleet use. Negotiate based on the age of the tyres and the remaining brake pad life, as these are common wear items not flagged in the most recent clean MOT.
The 2.0L diesel engine is designed for efficiency, particularly on longer motorway journeys. You can expect moderate fuel costs, though tax and insurance will vary based on the specific CO2 emissions of this 2013 model and your personal profile.
Maintenance costs for the Mondeo are generally competitive due to the widespread availability of parts. However, budget for the occasional higher-cost diesel-specific item, such as DPF cleaning or fuel filter replacements. The estimated annual running cost is approximately £1,200-£1,500.
Although the MOT history shows no defects across the last four tests, you should still perform a physical check of the suspension components and steering rack for any play. Inspect the black paintwork for age-related fading or scratches, which can be more prominent on darker colours.
Pay close attention to the diesel particulate filter (DPF) health; if the car has been used for short city trips, it may be prone to clogging. Check for any signs of oil leaks around the engine bay and ensure the clutch does not slip during a test drive.
This black Ford Mondeo Zetec Business Edition TDCI has recorded 104,550 miles, which is significantly lower than the expected average for a vehicle of its age. The MOT history is notably clean, with four consecutive passes and no recorded defects or advisories since December 2021. It represents a stable example of the 1997cc diesel variant.
The Mondeo TDCI is generally regarded as a robust performer, with an average MOT pass rate of 84.9% across 235 analysed vehicles.
