    By late reg looks like UK import, if there's no history I would take the odometer reading as a dashboard decoration, nothing more :D

    That's what I was wondering.........

    Proximity to the border would lead one to believe imported from North probably?

    Warranty - yes. Nct/tax - don't think so.
    I guess there is few weeks of nct left or none, and no tax. Normally they put info in the ad to increase value/interest on the car. Since they didn't mentioned any of those, i doubt there is nct/tax. Give them a call and ask.
    If no nct/tax - not a good deal really.

    Now - this is perfect example of missing information in the ad:

    No mention of mileage, but have a look at NCT cert...

    It's a UK car alright as it is the basic LX spec which was only available with the 90bhp TDCi engine here. The UK got the 115bhp and 130bhp engines but no 90bhp.

    BTW how much value is there in a warranty on a 10 year old car being sold from what looks like someone's yard?

    not with a barge pole, and I have been driving Mondeo´s for 8 years. Much better Mondy´s out there for that money.

    Amm doubt it's even worth the €710 tax it will cost you, I'd bet my weeks wages it's been clocked

    Do you mind me asking where did you get this info from?
    No mention of nct/owners in ad...
    It does explain no mention of nct in the ad if what you are saying is correct. 2 months is like no nct for 10 years old Mondeo with mileage that cannot be confirmed/checked.
