Summary
Average. Still a great drive, but now rather dated. Depreciation is scary unless you secure a big discount.
Styling
Time hasnt been kind to the Mondeos styling - looks dated compared to more modern competitors.
Handling
Like almost all of Fords current range the Mondeo drives very nicely - plenty of grip and communicative steering.
Comfort
Good at soaking up serious mileage, thanks to a smooth ride and good noise insulation, but lacks the range of driving position adjustment offered by some rivals.
Quality
Durable and with a reputation for reliability, but most of the cabin feels very low-rent compared to more modern competitors.
Performance
Petrol engines lack urge and turn in indifferent fuel consumption figures. Diesels are better - but more powerful versions are too loud.
Roominess
Plenty of room for occupants in the back and a huge boot make the Mondeo a very sensible proposition - but there are few cubby holes or storage compartments in the cabin.
Costs
Good on servicing andv - in diesel form - very economical, but the punishing depreciation really knocks the cost-per-mile figure.
Value
As a new purchase the Mondeo makes no sense without a very substantial discount. Nearly new its a different proposition - with plenty of attractively priced year-old versions on the forecourts.
Stereo
Basic stereo looks very cheap but sounds good. More expensive Sony-branded versions are even better. Satnav is below average compared to more modern systems in rivals.
Added Extras
Power Steering, Traction Control
