Great drive, good quality, practical, excellent value for money, cheap to run.
Much larger and more pretentious than it used to be.
Always more than just a workaday rep or hire car, the excellent Mondeo has been smartened up and kitted out with the latest gadgets.
It won't get any cheaper than this, for a car in this sector. Insurance groupings are lower than ever, thanks to lower accident repair costs; the tax bandings are relatively low; and Ford also reckons that this Mondeo will hold its value better than before, especially in diesel estate form. Ford's main dealer servicing and maintenance costs are lower than average, though most jobs can be carried out by independent garages anyway. Fuel consumption and carbon dioxide outputs are 3-10% better than their equivalents from the outgoing range; the 2.5 turbo returns a respectable 30.4mpg and the 2.0 TDCi 47.9mpg.
