2013 Ford Mondeo 2.0L Diesel · FG63 NTT

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistently stable maintenance trend over the last five years. The most recent inspection conducted on 29 October 2025 at 114,314 miles returned no defects or advisories. This five consecutive clean passes suggest that the previous owners have been proactive in addressing mechanical and safety issues before they could result in a formal MOT failure during the DVSA testing process. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,800 miles per annum. Between November 2022 and October 2025, the car covered 8,597 miles, indicating steady, predictable usage rather than long periods of neglect or excessive motorway strain. The intervals between tests are regular, with most inspections occurring roughly 12 to 14 months apart, which reflects a disciplined approach. This level of use suggests that the drivetrain and chassis components have not faced the accelerated wear and tear typically associated with high-mileage city driving. While the digital record shows no recorded faults, a physical inspection should focus on components prone to wear on vehicles of this age and mileage. A buyer should examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of perished rubber or fatigue, as these often degrade silently before an MOT failure occurs. Given the age, checking the brake discs for thinning and ensuring calipers are not binding is also prudent. Additionally, verifying the structural integrity of the underside and sills for corrosion will ensure no rust has developed beyond the scope of the recent tests.
