Our Verdict
Exercise significant caution before purc
Prospective buyers should focus heavily on the underside of the vehicle. The MOT records for this specific Mondeo show a consistent pattern of corrosion on brake pipes and fuel pipes, with these issues appearing in 2022, 2023, and 2024. You should verify if these components have been replaced with new parts or if the corrosion is a systemic issue that remains unaddressed.
Additionally, investigate the suspension and steering. The history notes repeated issues with ball joint dust covers, power steering seepage, and shock absorber misting. Ask for a detailed service history to see if these items were rectified following the 2023 failure, which included a significant number of advisories. Negotiating on price is advised to account for the potential immediate maintenance required for braking and suspension components.
As a 2.2L diesel, this Mondeo is designed for longer journeys, though fuel economy will depend heavily on driving style and the efficiency of the diesel engine at this age. Being a 2007 model, the tax band and insurance group should be relatively predictable, but the 2198cc engine size may place it in a mid-range insurance group.
Maintenance costs for this model can vary, but the MOT history suggests frequent attention to consumables like brake discs, tyres, and suspension components. Expect typical diesel maintenance costs, but factor in the potential for more frequent repairs to the braking and fuel delivery systems as indicated by the recent history.
A thorough inspection of the braking system is essential. The records show a recurring theme of pitted or scored brake discs and corroded brake pipes (both nearside and offside) across several years. Check the condition of all brake lines and ensure the discs do not show significant wear or scoring.
Secondly, inspect the suspension and steering. The vehicle has a history of 'slight play' in ball joints, deteriorated dust covers, and power steering seepage. Check the power steering fluid levels and look for any signs of leaks around the components. Finally, check the fuel pipes for corrosion, as this was a specific failure/advisory point in the 2022 and 2023 records.
This 2007 Ford Mondeo 2.2L diesel is a high-mileage example with 86,914 miles recorded at its last test. While the mileage is relatively low compared to its age, the MOT history shows a pattern of repeated advisories and failures, particularly concerning brake pipes, fuel pipes, and suspension ball joints. The vehicle has undergone several tests that resulted in failures or significant numbers of advisories, suggesting a history of recurring maintenance needs.
Aggregate data for this model shows an average MOT pass rate of 78.2%, with common failure points being tyres, anti-roll bars, and exhausts.
