2021 Ford Mondeo 2.0L Hybrid electric · LC71 OPO

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection on 04 February 2026 at 22,116 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that previous minor issues have been addressed. This return to a clean record suggests that the mechanical and safety components inspected by the tester are meeting the minimum legal standards for operation on public roads. The mileage profile is notably low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,423 miles per year. Between the August 2024 test at 16,309 miles and the January 2025 test at 18,175 miles, the car covered only 1,866 miles over five months, suggesting infrequent use. While mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and suspension, the long intervals between tests can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components or corrosion on brake discs if the vehicle sits for extended periods. The failure recorded on 27 January 2025 at 18,175 miles was limited to minor consumables, specifically insufficient washer fluid and an ineffective windscreen wiper blade. These are basic maintenance items that were resolved immediately to achieve a pass. Because the record shows no history of structural corrosion, brake binding, or mechanical failures, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on signs of low-use neglect. This includes checking for flat spots on tyres, surface rust from lack of use, and ensuring the brake calipers are not seized despite the low mileage.
