2008 Ford Mondeo 2.0L Petrol · MA58 AAU

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent testing data. The final MOT test conducted on September 7, 2023, at 119,049 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following an initial failure on the same day. This suggests that a specific issue was rectified immediately prior to the successful inspection. Since that date, no further tests have been recorded, indicating the vehicle has maintained a clean mechanical record over the last three years. The mileage pattern is consistent with low-to-mid-range usage, averaging approximately 6,600 miles per annum. Between the October 2021 test at 110,138 miles and the September 2022 test at 113,221 miles, the car covered 3,083 miles. Between the 2022 and September 2023 tests, the mileage increased by another 5,828 miles. This steady, moderate accumulation reduces the likelihood of excessive wear on the drivetrain components, though the age of the vehicle remains a primary factor for rubber-based component degradation. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity and suspension components, as the MOT history does not highlight recurring mechanical failures. Given the vehicle's age, a thorough check for corrosion on the underbody sills, wheel arches, and subframe is essential to identify hidden rust. Because the failures in 2021 and 2023 did not list specific defects in the summary provided, the buyer should verify for signs of perished bushings or worn shock absorbers, which are common points of wear on this generation of Fiesta regardless of mileage.
