Our Verdict
A reasonable choice for those seeking a
Given the mileage of 138,540, the primary focus should be on the service history. Verify when the timing belt and water pump were last replaced, as these are critical maintenance items for this engine. Ensure there is a documented history of regular oil changes to support the longevity of the turbocharger.
Negotiate based on the high mileage compared to the model average. Check for any evidence of recent major work that could offset the age of the vehicle, and ensure all electronic systems in the cabin are functioning correctly.
The 1.6L diesel engine is designed for efficiency, particularly on longer journeys, though urban fuel economy will be lower. Tax and insurance costs are generally moderate for a vehicle of this age and engine size.
Maintenance costs will likely be driven by the vehicle's age and mileage. Expect to budget for the replacement of consumable items such as brake pads and tyres, which are common failure points for this model.
Pay close attention to the tyres. The MOT history shows a failure in 2022 for offside front tread depth and advisories in 2023 for both nearside front and offside rear tyres worn close to the legal limit; ensure the current set has plenty of tread and even wear.
Following aggregate model data, inspect the brake pads and windscreen wipers, as these are among the top reasons for Mondeo MOT failures. A thorough check of the suspension components is also advised given the total mileage covered.
This silver 2013 Ford Mondeo 1.6 Diesel has recorded 138,540 miles. Its MOT history shows a consistent record, with only one failure in October 2022 due to tyre tread depth. The most recent test in November 2024 was passed with no defects recorded.
The Mondeo has an average MOT pass rate of 78.1%, with the most frequent failures relating to tyres, brake pads, and wipers.
