2008 Ford Mondeo 2.0L Diesel · ND58 AJO

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile based on the most recent MOT data. The May 2025 test at 167,611 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, indicating that previous issues were successfully rectified. While the record shows two instances of failure without specific defect descriptions—in October 2023 at 156,442 miles and May 2025 at 167,611 miles—the subsequent passes suggest these were likely minor or consumable-related issues that have been addressed. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a vehicle of this age. Moving from 148,117 miles in August 2022 to 167,611 miles in May 2025 represents an average annual usage of approximately 6,500 miles. This is slightly lower than the typical 9,000-mile yearly average for an 18-year-old car, suggesting the vehicle has seen moderate, steady use rather than heavy commercial or high-speed motorway transit. Given the age and the mileage, a physical inspection should focus on common wear items that often trigger MOT failures. You should specifically examine the suspension components, including coil springs and bushes, as well as the condition of the brake discs and calipers to ensure no binding issues persist. The lack of recorded structural corrosion in the recent history is a positive sign, but the underside should still be checked for surface rust on the exhaust and subframes. The overall trend indicates a vehicle that has undergone necessary repairs to maintain its certificate of roadworthiness. Because the specific reasons for the recorded failures are not detailed in the digital record, verifying the recent service history for any work related to lighting, wipers, or tyres is recommended to confirm the vehicle's current condition.
