2016 Ford Mondeo 2.0L Diesel · VN16 YOK

The 2016 Ford Mondeo presents a stable and exemplary maintenance trend, confirmed by a completely clean MOT record. The most recent test on 11 March 2026 at 46,974 miles passed without a single defect or advisory, demonstrating that the vehicle currently meets all UK roadworthiness standards. This unbroken string of passes indicates a total absence of recurring mechanical deterioration. The car has required no remedial attention across its documented history, reflecting diligent upkeep by the previous keeper. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a vehicle of this age, averaging roughly 4,697 miles per year. Between the 20 June 2022 test at 21,138 miles and the 13 March 2023 test at 21,639 miles, the car covered just 501 miles in approximately nine months, suggesting a period of very light use or prolonged standing. The subsequent annual intervals, however, show a marked increase in usage. The car added 8,002 miles between March 2023 and March 2024, and 6,906 miles between March 2024 and February 2025. The final jump to 46,974 miles by March 2026 represents a significant 10,427-mile increase over thirteen months, indicating the vehicle has recently returned to regular, heavier use. Because the MOT history contains zero recurring faults or structural advisories, the record raises no red flags regarding suspension bushes, brake corrosion, or exhaust integrity. A buyer must still inspect the vehicle in person to assess the effects of its low-mileage, part-standing history. Tyres and rubber suspension components may exhibit age-related perishing or cracking despite retaining ample tread depth. Brake discs and calipers require close scrutiny for surface corrosion, a common issue when vehicles stand for extended periods, which can cause binding or uneven braking not always apparent during a static MOT check. The recent spike in mileage also warrants verifying the condition of the timing belt and fluid service intervals, as irregular use can accelerate the degradation of consumables regardless of the low odometer reading.
