Our Verdict
This Ford Mondeo is a solid prospect for
When inspecting this Mondeo, verify that the maintenance work identified in the 2023 MOT, specifically the replacement of brake pads and tyres, has been documented in any available service history. As these are standard consumables, their condition is a direct indicator of how the vehicle has been prepared for sale.
Take the car for a thorough test drive to ensure the 1.5-litre petrol engine operates smoothly and that there is no judder under braking, which could indicate warped discs. Check that all electrical features, including the registration plate lamp that previously failed, are functioning correctly, as electrical gremlins can be persistent in this model generation.
The 1.5-litre petrol engine sits in a moderate insurance group for a vehicle of this size, though costs will vary based on your personal driving history. Fuel economy for this specific engine variant is generally reasonable for motorway driving, though city driving may see a significant drop in efficiency.
Annual maintenance should account for the fact that this is a larger vehicle, meaning tyre and brake costs are slightly higher than those for smaller hatchbacks. You should budget for an annual running cost of approximately £1,200-£1,500, factoring in fuel, annual VED (road tax), insurance, and a contingency fund for routine servicing.
Focus your inspection on the areas identified in the 2023 MOT test: tyres and brake components. Ensure the tyres have a healthy tread depth across the entire width of the tyre, as the 2023 record noted uneven wear on the front tyres, which could point to tracking or alignment issues that may need professional adjustment.
Additionally, check the condition of the windscreen and wiper blades, as visibility-related items are common failure points for the Mondeo model. Inspect all exterior lighting, specifically the registration plate lamps, to ensure they are fully illuminated, as this was a previously noted defect.
This 2016 Ford Mondeo has covered 81,875 miles since its registration in January 2016. The MOT history shows a consistent pattern of passing, with the last three consecutive tests recorded without any defects. While the 2023 test highlighted maintenance needs regarding tyres, brakes, and lighting, the vehicle has successfully navigated its most recent inspections.
The Ford Mondeo generally performs well in MOT testing, with tyre and brake issues being the most common failure points across the model range.
