The FORD MONDEO (2007-11) 4DR SALOON 1.6 125 ZETEC is a spacious four-door family car in the UK’s large saloon class, competing with the Vauxhall Insignia and Volkswagen Passat. Its styling and roomy cabin make it an alternative to an estate or hatchback, especially for buyers who prefer a boot. mycarcheck.com has recorded three checks covering two distinct cars, so these figures are useful context rather than a broad reliability verdict. The checks show an average private-sale valuation of £1,300, average recorded mileage of 139,000 miles, around 7,000 miles driven annually and roughly 1.7 previous keepers. The 1.6-litre petrol engine offers a straightforward choice for everyday commuting and family journeys, while the Mondeo is best suited to drivers wanting space and comfort rather than a city car. Compared with rivals, it is known for generous passenger room and road manners; check service history and condition at this age.
