2015 Ford Mondeo 1.5L Diesel · RG65 BOS

The vehicle currently holds a valid roadworthiness status following a clean MOT pass in March 2026 at 210,248 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable but reactive, as evidenced by a pattern of immediate failures followed by passes. In both February 2025 and February 2026, the car failed its test only one to two miles prior to a successful re-test. This suggests that the previous owner addresses specific mechanical faults or consumable failures only when prompted by the testing process rather than following a preventative maintenance schedule. The mileage profile indicates high-intensity use for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging over 19,000 miles per annum. Between March 2024 and March 2026, the car covered 19,173 miles, maintaining a consistent and high annual usage rate. This rapid accumulation places significant stress on the drivetrain components, suspension geometry, and braking system. While the lack of recorded advisories in the most recent tests suggests the vehicle is currently sound, the sheer distance traveled increases the likelihood of premature fatigue in rubber bushings and worn turbocharger components. A buyer must conduct a deep physical inspection of the underbody and suspension assembly. Given the high mileage and reactive repair history, check for excessive play in the control arm bushes and inspect shocks for leaks or perished boots. The braking system should also be scrutinized for thin discs or seized calipers, as the high mileage often accelerates wear on these components. While the record shows no structural corrosion, verify the sills and mounting points to ensure the high-mileage use has not compromised the chassis integrity.
