2013 Ford Mondeo 2.0L Diesel · WM13 DVG

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passes over the last three years. The most recent inspection conducted on 5 August 2025 at 141,888 miles returned no recorded defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety standards. This follows a period of clean passes in 2024 and 2022, suggesting that the previous owners have addressed necessary mechanical requirements before they resulted in test-level failures. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a thirteen-year-old Forddeo, averaging approximately 11,000 miles per annum. Between August 2022 and August 2023, the car covered 10,629 miles, while it added another 8,189 miles between the 2023 and 2024 tests, and 7,622 miles leading up to the 2025 inspection. This steady usage pattern suggests the vehicle has seen regular road use which typically helps prevent the degradation of seals and the neglect associated with long stationary periods. The failure on 2 August 2023 at 126,077 miles indicates a specific mechanical issue that required rectification to achieve the subsequent pass. While the record does not detail the exact cause of that failure, a buyer should perform a physical inspection of the suspension bushes and brake components, as these are common points of wear on this model at this mileage. Given the age, close attention should also be paid to structural corrosion on the sills and the condition of the exhaust system to ensure no hidden rust is developing despite the clean recent MOT sheets.
