2006 Ford Mondeo 1.8L Petrol · VX06 AFF

This vehicle presents an exceptionally clean MOT history with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 3 December 2025 at 72,242 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back several years, suggesting a vehicle that has been kept in a roadworthy state without the recurring mechanical failures common to cars of this vintage. The mileage is remarkably low for a 2006 model, averaging roughly 3,612 miles per year. Between December 2022 and December 2025, the odometer rose from 60,959 to 72,242 miles, indicating a steady usage pattern of approximately 4,000 miles annually. The record shows a failure and immediate pass on 7 December 2022, though the lack of recorded defects suggests a minor administrative or quick-fix issue rather than a significant mechanical failure. Low mileage on a twenty year old Ford Mondeo often indicates periods of standing, which can lead to specific degradation not always captured in a brief MOT. A buyer should physically inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting and check for perished rubber components, such as suspension bushes and coolant hoses, which can crack due to age rather than wear. The absence of advisories regarding structural integrity or corrosion is positive, but the chassis and sills should still be checked for rust. While the DVSA records show no faults, verifying the condition of the tyres and checking for fluid leaks will confirm if the low mileage reflects genuine care or simple underuse.
