The FORD MONDEO ESTATE (2014-19) 5DR ESTATE 1.6 TDCI ECONETIC DPF SS 115 EU5 STYLE 6SPD is a spacious, mid-size family estate, offering more luggage room than a conventional hatchback without the bulk of an SUV. In the UK used-car market, it suits buyers needing everyday practicality and long-distance comfort. Mycarcheck.com recorded 39 checks covering 19 different cars, offering a useful snapshot rather than a huge sample. The average private-sale estimate was £5,700; recorded mileage averaged 140,000, with annual use around 13,000 miles. Cars had about 1.7 previous keepers on average, suggesting many examples have had relatively few ownership changes. The 1.6-litre diesel with stop-start is designed to keep running costs manageable, suiting commuting families and drivers covering motorway miles. A roomy cabin, useful boot and comfortable ride help it compete with other estate rivals, including the Volkswagen Passat and Vauxhall Insignia. Check maintenance records carefully, especially at higher mileages.
