2013 Ford Mondeo 1.6L Diesel · YP63 AEB

This Ford Mondeo presents a stable and exceptionally clean MOT history, suggesting a high standard of preventative maintenance. The most recent test on 2 October 2025 at 122,691 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the record shows a failure on the same day, the lack of listed defects suggests a clerical error or a minor administrative issue rather than a mechanical failure. The mileage pattern is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging roughly 9,438 miles per year. The distance covered between tests has remained steady, with 4,712 miles added between October 2023 and October 2024, and a further 6,442 miles added by October 2025. This regular usage prevents the common issues associated with long periods of standing, such as seized brake calipers or perished rubber seals. The complete absence of advisories across the last four years is unusual for a vehicle of this age and mileage. Typically, a 2013 Mondeo would show signs of wear in the suspension bushes, coil springs, or minor corrosion on the sills and rear subframe. The lack of flagged issues indicates either a very diligent owner who replaces components before they fail or a lenient testing regime. A physical inspection should focus on the areas the MOT record does not capture. Check for oil leaks around the engine seals and inspect the condition of the brake discs for lip wear. Given the clean record, verify that the service history matches this trend, specifically looking for evidence of timing belt and water pump replacements, as these are critical maintenance items not flagged during a standard MOT test.
