2013 Ford Mondeo 2.0L Diesel · MW62 HWD

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate following a successful test on 13 October 2025 at 93,547 miles. While the final outcome was a pass, the record shows a recurring pattern of initial failure followed by an immediate pass on the same day during both the 2024 and 2025 inspections. This sequence suggests that minor administrative or technical issues were rectified on-site during the testing process, rather than indicating a period of prolonged mechanical neglect. The lack of recorded advisories over the past three years points to a stable, albeit brief, period of compliance. The vehicle has covered 93,547 miles over its 13-year lifespan, averaging approximately 7,196 miles per annum. This rate of usage is consistent with typical domestic operation and does not suggest excessive high-speed motorway wear or prolonged periods of inactivity that might otherwise lead to seized components or accelerated corrosion. The mileage accumulation has remained steady throughout the recorded history, indicating the car has been in regular use rather than sitting idle for extended intervals. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the components that often escape notice during automated testing, specifically the condition of the suspension bushes and the integrity of the exhaust system. Given the age of the Mondeo, a thorough check for surface corrosion on the subframes and sills is necessary, as these areas can deteriorate despite a clean MOT history. Because the recent tests yielded no advisories, the mechanical health of the braking system and tyres relies entirely on the current state of consumables, which should be verified for remaining service life before purchase. Buying score: 75. Risk level: Low.
