The FORD MONDEO (2000-07) 5DR ESTATE 2.5 V6 170 GHIA X is a spacious, large family estate from Ford’s mainstream range, offering a useful alternative to an SUV for carrying passengers and bulky luggage. Its long roof and generous boot suit family holidays, hobbies and everyday errands, while remaining car-like to drive. The Ghia X was a well-equipped, higher-specification choice, and the 2.5-litre V6 brings smooth, relaxed performance, especially on longer journeys. The trade-off is likely higher fuel use than smaller-engined Mondeos, so it suits drivers who value refinement and space over maximum economy. It competed with estate versions of the Vauxhall Vectra and Volkswagen Passat. Mycarcheck.com records 44 checks across 32 distinct VINs: a useful snapshot, though not a huge sample.
