2010 Ford Mondeo 1.8L Diesel · SA60 LWZ

The 2010 Ford Mondeo presents a currently roadworthy status following a clean pass on 9 September 2025 at 134,011 miles. The maintenance trend is stable with no advisories or defects logged across the last three annual tests. The vehicle carries a clean mechanical record with no recurring faults or structural concerns raised by DVSA testers. Recorded mileage stands at 134,011 miles against an approximate 16-year lifespan, equating to roughly 8,376 miles per year which is typical for the age. The gap between the August 2024 failure at 128,474 miles and the September 2024 pass at 128,490 miles shows only 16 miles covered, suggesting the car was promptly rectified and retested. Annual increments of around 5,500 to 6,000 miles between 2023 and 2025 indicate consistent, moderate use with no abrupt accumulation or long dormant periods. The four failed tests between 2024 and 2025 list no defects recorded, which points to administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical faults. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, and underbody corrosion given the vehicle's age and 134,011-mile tally. The absence of advisories across the record implies previous owners kept basic upkeep current, though sixteen-year-old Ford Mondeos commonly develop perished rubber components and structural rust at sills and subframes unseen in a pass-fail log.
