The FORD MONDEO (2000-07) 5DR ESTATE 2.0 TDCI 130 GHIA REV 05 is a roomy, mid-size family estate rather than a small runabout or SUV. It offered a practical alternative to the Volkswagen Passat, Vauxhall Vectra and Toyota Avensis, with generous luggage space for everyday family life, work or holidays. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 56 look-ups across 45 different VINs, offering a useful picture of this model in the UK market. These records show an average private-sale valuation of £1,100 and average recorded mileage of 129,000 miles; the typical example had around three previous keepers and covered 8,000 miles a year. As a Ghia, the Mondeo was positioned as a comfortable choice, and its diesel engine suits commuting and longer trips better than stop-start town use. The estate’s flexible space and composed road manners make it appealing to families and buyers, though age, condition and service history matter at this budget.
