2002 Ford Mondeo 1.8L Petrol · YJ52 XVU

The vehicle has maintained a stable roadworthiness trend over the past four years, with all tests passing without defects. The most recent test on 27 March 2026 at 48,014 miles confirmed the vehicle's compliance with roadworthiness standards. The absence of advisories or defects in any test suggests consistent maintenance and care. However, the single failure in December 2022 at 47,390 miles, with no defects recorded, indicates an anomaly that requires further investigation. The mileage pattern shows a low annual average of around 2,001 miles, which is unusual for a vehicle of this age. The recorded mileage increased by just 123 miles between the December 2022 and March 2023 tests, suggesting a prolonged period of inactivity or minimal use. This low mileage accumulation may have contributed to the anomaly in the December 2022 test, as it could have masked potential issues that would have been more apparent under normal usage. The subsequent tests show a more consistent mileage increase, but the overall low average remains concerning. Given the stable trend and the absence of recurring defects, the vehicle's structural integrity and mechanical components appear to be in good condition. However, the buyer should inspect the suspension and steering systems for any signs of wear or damage, particularly considering the low mileage and potential inactivity periods. Additionally, the brakes should be thoroughly checked for any signs of wear or potential issues, as the low mileage may have delayed the onset of typical brake component degradation. The exhaust system should also be inspected for any signs of leaks or corrosion, as the vehicle's age may have contributed to potential wear in this area. Finally, the vehicle's electrical systems should be reviewed to ensure all components are functioning correctly, given the low mileage and potential inactivity periods.
