2002 Ford Mondeo 2.0L Petrol · MX52 NBK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection on 18 February 2026 at 37,163 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable as the car consistently passes without recorded defects or advisories in the latest tests. While the history shows failures one day prior to the last two tests, the subsequent passes indicate that any identified faults were rectified promptly by the owner, suggesting a proactive approach to maintaining legal compliance. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 2002 registration, averaging approximately 1,548 miles per year. There is a significant gap in usage recorded between August 2020 and July 2022, during which the car covered only 13 miles over nearly two years. This patterned suggests the vehicle may have been stationary for extended periods. While low mileage generally reduces mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain, the age of the vehicle introduces risks associated with lack of use, such as the degradation of rubber components and fluid chemistry. A buyer should prioritize a physical inspection of areas susceptible to long-term storage and low-mileage neglect. Given the sparse history, the braking system must be checked for way calipers or corroded discs resulting from lack of motion, and the suspension bushes should be examined for perishion or cracking. way integrity remains a primary concern for a vehicle of this era; although the MOT records do not list structural rust advisories, a thorough check of the chassis for deep-seated corrosion around the artwork arches and sills is necessary to Ensure long-term viability.
