The FORD MONDEO (2000-07) 4DR SALOON 2.0 145 GHIA AUTO4 REV 05 is a roomy, four-door family saloon from the mainstream large-car class. In the UK, it offered a comfortable alternative to rivals such as the Vauxhall Vectra and Volkswagen Passat, with a traditional boot and easy-to-use cabin for everyday travel. The 2.0-litre petrol engine and automatic gearbox suit relaxed commuting and longer journeys, while Ghia trim brings a more upmarket feel than basic versions. This Mondeo is best suited to families, couples or drivers wanting a spacious, straightforward used car rather than a small city runabout. Expect comfort and useful space; older age and automatic petrol running costs are worth factoring in. mycarcheck.com has just four look-ups across three VINs, so figures are indicative: average recorded mileage was 119,000, annual mileage 5,000, seven previous keepers and an £800 private-sale valuation. Check each car’s history and condition carefully before buying.
