The FORD MONDEO (2000-07) 4DR SALOON 1.8 SCI 130 GHIA is a roomy, four-door family saloon from Ford’s mainstream large-car range in the UK market. It offered an alternative to the Vauxhall Vectra, with more passenger and luggage space than a small hatchback. Ghia trim added a comfort-focused feel, while the 1.8-litre petrol engine suits everyday trips, commuting and longer journeys. Its spacious, composed character makes this Mondeo appealing to couples, small families and anyone wanting an affordable, straightforward used car. Compared with rivals, it is known for roomy accommodation and reassuring road manners, though it is less suited to buyers seeking modern fuel economy or easy city parking. mycarcheck.com has five look-ups across two VINs, a small snapshot rather than a market-wide sample. Figures show an average private-sale value of £600, 89,000 recorded miles, 4,000 miles driven annually and 2.8 previous keepers. Check each car’s condition and history carefully.
