2010 Ford Mondeo 1.8L Diesel · YP60 ABX

The 2010 Ford Mondeo shows a broadly stable maintenance trend with a clean roadworthiness record at its most recent test. In the July 2022 examination at 152,885 miles the vehicle passed with no defects recorded, though the DVSA log also lists a failed attempt on the same date with no defects cited, an administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Prior tests in July 2021 at 130,247 miles and July 2020 at 111,804 miles also returned passes with no advisories, indicating the tester raised no concerns over suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions across this period. The odometer advanced from 111,525 miles in June 2020 to 152,885 miles by July 2022, an accumulation of roughly 41,360 miles over twenty-five months or about 19,850 miles per year, above the lifetime average of 9,555 miles. The gap between the June 2020 and July 2021 tests covers 18,722 miles, a heavier use phase than earlier years suggest. Beyond that window the record is sparse, with only five entries across the vehicle's life, so no long-term wear pattern on consumables such as tyres or wiper blades can be inferred from the data supplied. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the car's sixteen-year age and salt-exposed UK roads, as the MOT history flags none but does not confirm absence. The brake calipers, coil springs, and steering joints warrant physical checks for binding or fatigue not captured in a pass-only log. The same-day fail with no defects recorded in July 2022 should be clarified with the test centre to rule out a documentation error before purchase.
