2006 Ford Mondeo 2.2L Diesel · KF56 PWV

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT on 7 February 2025 at 179,075 miles. The inspection history shows a consistent pattern where the car fails an initial test just days before a successful retest in both 2024 and 2025. While the record lists no specific defects for these failures, the pattern suggests they were likely due to minor consumable items or lighting adjustments that the previous owner addressed immediately rather than systemic mechanical or structural failure. At 20 years old, the recorded mileage of 179,075 miles represents an annual average of approximately 9,000 miles, which aligns with typical UK usage for a vehicle of this age. The data shows steady and consistent progression with roughly 7,000 miles covered between February 2023 and February 2024, and another 3,500 miles between February 2024 and February 2025. This regular use suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of standing, which is generally beneficial for the health of rubber seals and braking components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the high-wear areas typical of a high-mileage Mondeo. Given the age, a close check of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and ball joints is necessary to identify signs of accelerated wear. Because the MOT record shows no structural advisories, the buyer should still manually inspect the sills, wheel arches, and underbody for hidden corrosion, as these are common points of failure for this generation regardless of a clean test history.
