2012 Ford Mondeo 2.0L Diesel · WK62 BAA

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status, following a clean pass in its most recent test on 10 June 2025 at 170,217 miles. This result indicates that the previous owner has successfully addressed and rectified the issues identified in earlier inspections. While the history shows failures in June 2023 and June 2024, the subsequent passes without recorded advisories suggest the mechanical and structural condition is currently maintained to an acceptable operational standard. At 14 years old, the recorded mileage of 170,217 miles reflects high annual usage, averaging approximately 12,158 miles per year. The data shows consistent accumulation over time, with 3,096 miles driven between the June 2023 and June 2024 tests, and another 3,970 miles between June 2024 and June 2025. This regularity suggests the vehicle has been used for regular commuting rather than sitting idle, which often prevents the degradation of seals and components compared to low-mileage stationary vehicles. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension geometry and rubber arm bushings, as the high mileage accelerates the wear of these components on a Mondeo. Given the previous failures in recent years, a close check of the braking system for play in calipers or uneven discs is necessary to ensure those faults do not resurface. The chassis should also be examined for corrosion on the sills and structural mounting points, as high-mileage vehicles exposed to the elements are prone to hidden rust that compromises the frame.
