2017 Ford Mondeo 2.0L Diesel · FJ67 RBV

The 2017 Ford Mondeo presents a stable roadworthiness trend with a clean pass recorded at the most recent test on 2025-04-02 at 164,966 miles. No defects or advisories appear across the available history, indicating the vehicle has met minimum statutory standards at each examination. The upkeep pattern reflects consistent annual compliance rather than reactive repair. The odometer shows 164,966 miles against a nine-year lifespan, equating to roughly 18,330 miles per year and placing this estate in the high-use bracket for its age. Mileage stepped from 86,363 at the September 2021 test to 106,531 by March 2023, then 133,711 in April 2024 and 164,966 by April 2025, a steady ~27,000-mile annual climb with no standing periods. The record is sparse but unbroken by faults, showing only a duplicate September 2021 entry where the car failed then passed on the same day at 86,363 miles with no defects logged, likely an administrative retest rather than a mechanical issue. Given the high accumulated mileage and clean test sheet, a buyer should physically inspect suspension bushes, coil springs, and damper condition for fatigue not yet captured as advisories. Brake discs and calipers warrant measurement for wear from sustained motorway use, alongside checks for structural corrosion on sills and subframes. The absence of flagged faults suggests previous owners addressed items pre-test, but the drivetrain and exhaust emissions should still be verified on a cold start for hidden degradation.
