The FORD MONDEO (2000-07) 5DR HATCHBACK 2.0 TDCI 130 LX is a large family hatchback from Ford’s popular range. In the UK used-car market, it offers more room than a small hatchback while providing a practical alternative to larger executive cars. Its five-door design makes access easy. Mycarcheck.com data shows 40 look-ups covering 34 different VINs, a snapshot rather than a measure of the whole market. Checked cars averaged 148,000 miles and 10,000 miles a year, with nearly four previous keepers. The average private-sale valuation was £300, though condition and history affect value. The 2.0 TDCi diesel makes this Mondeo a sensible choice for regular commuting and longer journeys, while the roomy cabin and useful hatchback boot suit families or anyone carrying everyday belongings. It is known for comfortable, composed travel and strong value against rivals such as the Vauxhall Vectra and Volkswagen Passat; check service records and condition carefully.
