Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2012 Ford Mondeo presents a clean roadworthiness status. The most recent test on 23 May 2025 at 242,656 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the maintenance trend across the supplied history is stable with no advisories or failures raised at any stage. Annual mileage sits at roughly 17,333 miles, which is high for a 14-year-old vehicle but consistent across the record. The tests show 174,994 miles in April 2022, 189,207 in March 2023, 217,419 in March 2024, and 242,656 in May 2025. The gaps between tests are short and the accumulation is steady at around 25,000 to 28,000 miles per year, with no standing periods or sudden jumps. The DVSA data is sparse on faults, showing four consecutive passes and no recorded wear items. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the 242,656-mile count. The MOT record flags no corrosion or structural concerns, yet high mileage drivetrain components such as the clutch, turbo, and engine mounts warrant hands-on checks the paper test cannot capture. Given the absence of advisories across four years, previous owners appear to have kept the car to a passable standard rather than addressing wear before it triggers a defect. Treat the clean record as evidence of basic compliance, not proof of refreshed mechanical condition at this mileage.
