2018 Ford Mondeo 2.0L Hybrid electric (clean) · LR68 HWB

The vehicle maintains a high level of roadworthiness with a perfectly stable maintenance trend across its entire history. The most recent test on 20 May 2026 at 2,630 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This consistency over six consecutive annual tests suggests the vehicle has been kept in good condition and has not been subjected to the mechanical stresses typically associated with heavy usage. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 329 miles per year. Between the September 2021 test at 1,535 miles and the May 2026 test at 2,630 miles, the car covered only 1,095 miles. While this low mileage indicates minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine internal components, it also suggests the vehicle likely sat for long periods stationary. Such infrequent use can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components and fluids that a standard MOT does not always capture. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by long-term standing rather than mileage. Check the brake discs for corrosion or seized calipers, as brakes often rust and seize when used sparingly. The tyres should be inspected for age cracking and flat spots, even if tread depth is likely sufficient. Additionally, examine the suspension bushes and seals for perish or cracking, ensuring the rubber has not become brittle due to time rather than mechanical wear.
