Mondeo

All in all

Hi, does anyone have any opinion on this car? Seems nice spec. Have looked at car sourcing places but don't seem to be doing any better pricewise for a similar spec.

Check the drivers seat for comfort before you buy. Not everyone has this problem with them, but I did. Mondeo was my first choice having talked to other owners and reading online reports - all good. I'd like to see pictures of the interior as well as the outside.

Cheers. It is half leather interior, very comfortable.

Looks like a decent car, I'd be wanting interior pics though. The 2.0 is a must with a car that size, despite that, a large proportion are 1.6. The half alcantara leather is a nice addition, as the titanium had this as an optional extra. Look out for a full service history.

12500 miles probably means no service history as it may not have had its first service yet

Didn't pay much notice to the mileage actually!

12.5k miles is very low for a 2 year old 2 litre diesel car. Even though that's all the mileage it has, I'd still expect it to have been serviced at a year old, and before the op buys it, assuming it hadn't been serviced in a year or so. It's 2 years old, or thereabouts, it should have received 2 services, regardless of mileage.

I ended up buying it and picked it up at the weekend. Delighted with it so far. It did have full service was serviced after 12 months at 12k kms and again before I collected.
