Faults:

Not much, been told to watch out for the usual diesel troubles at higher mileage, but mine seems OK the last couple of years and I am at nearly 120K. I keep the car serviced on time and only use it for long drives which is best for diesel.

General Comments:

A modern Mondeo is a great car to own and drive. I got a great deal on mine and it has been very reliable so far.

For a 2016 model which is 8 years old at time of writing this review, the car feels as good as new. This generation Mondeo is as good as they get. The car looks and feels classy, and I am no badge snob despite coming from driving a Mercedes! I have no problems with this Ford, people in the know respect it for what it is - a good modern car that is economical and easy to own.

My car is white, bigger alloy wheels on this Zetec model, very nice. Nice inside also, all modern equipment and supportive seats. Great to drive.

2.0 TDCi is very economical, 55 mpg + and plenty of power for overtaking.

They used to be very overpriced on the used market, but are now coming down to be affordable. Look for a car with full history and good condition and go for it, you cannot go wrong, easily the best car in its class!

Faults:

Clutch, turbo, oil leak, exhaust, DPF.

Got a really good deal on this Mondeo due to its high mileage. It had full service history and MOT at a nice price. Drove great on the test drive. So that's why I bought it.

Highly likely it was a taxi in its early years. These cars take high mileage well, but obviously you have to expect some expensive repairs at some point. I don't regret my purchase, but it has been expensive to put right.

Interior has held up well, some wear here and there, but pretty solid for an 8 year old car with 180K on it. Titanium model is very comfortable with lots of equipment.

Looks good in black metallic on the exterior. Lots of stone chips on the front bumper and bonnet due to miles and miles of motorway travel.

The car is nice to drive, punchy engine and still does 50 mpg + on diesel.

Time will tell if it lasts, feels very modern, but it should, it is only a 2016 car, not exactly ancient, but I am just being realistic about the mileage. If I get a couple more years from it I will be happy. Tax and insurance are cheap and it is economical, plus I got it really cheap to begin with, so now going forwards it is about avoiding expensive bills. I've serviced it and it's had all required belt changes so fingers crossed it will last; I do like this car despite its roughness.

Nothing major yet. Touch screen a little hesitant sometimes.

General Comments:

A really great looking car and wonderful to drive.

1.5 TDCi is not fast, but with 60 mpg + cheap tax and insurance, who is complaining?

Very comfortable seats, Titanium model is the one to have. Excellent on long journeys.

The car handles like a dream for a run of the mill car.

Excellent motorway cruiser.

Residual values are strong for the Mondeo. So that means not many deals on the used market, but buy a good one and keep it in good condition and it will hold its value better than rival cars in the same class.

Faults:

Tyre pressure sensor.

General Comments:

Love this car, it's big and comfortable, all the extras included, very smooth gearbox and quite fast for a 1.5 litre engine.

Averages 60mpg, never tired after a long journey, so far a tyre pressure sensor malfunctioned and that's it.

It's a shame that they are not made any more by Ford, as they are a super car, and the newest model looks like a Aston Martin from the front. Really nice looking car.

Space inside is great and the boot is enormous. Who needs an SUV??? Hoping to have many joyful years with this car, Euro 6 and tax free, so no costs driving in the ULEZ zones.
