The FORD MONDEO (2000-07) 5DR HATCHBACK 2.0 TDCI 115 GHIA 6SP REV 05 is a roomy, five-door family hatchback, positioned as a practical mainstream car rather than a small city runabout or SUV. It offered generous passenger space and useful luggage capacity, making it a familiar alternative to the Vauxhall Vectra and Volkswagen Passat. The 2.0-litre diesel and six-speed gearbox suit regular commuting and longer journeys, while Ghia trim gives this Mondeo a more comfortable, well-equipped feel. It is best suited to families, commuters and drivers wanting a spacious, affordable used car. Mycarcheck.com recorded 23 checks across 21 different VINs, a useful but modest sample. Those checks show an average recorded mileage of 128,000 miles, annual use of 10,000 miles and around three previous keepers; the average private-sale valuation was £700. These figures are guideposts, not a price promise. The Mondeo stands out for space, comfort and sensible long-distance ability.
