Ford Mondeo reviews

A good cabin with most of the optional extras associated with the Titanium X model. The driver's seat is not as comfortable as the Ghia X I used to have as there are not as many adjustments possible, but still relatively OK. I have driven to Switzerland via Germany and back via France and found that I was very relaxed throughout the journey. I drive around 500-1000 miles a week and generally feel OK by the time I get home. The cruise control, auto-lights, auto-wipers, excellent sound system all help, but the climate control is the best in the business for keeping the cabin air fresh and the windows clear. On the negative side, the spare wheel is full size and this takes up a lot of boot space, consequently the boot capacity is a little less than the older model. In fact, so much so that I now hire a roof box for holidays (mainly due to the kids? stuff). I would consider going for a smaller spare wheel and regain the boot space if you normally carry more than 2 large suitcases when you go on holiday. Would I buy another when it's time to renew? Definitely

This car has been up and down the motorways from Scotland to Cornwall and London mainly and other holiday destinations and has never let us down. Taking 2 people in comfort with a load of luggage on holidays to many destinations at an affordable fuel cost is tops in my book. This is my third Mondeo and it is the best so far. My next car will be a newer model.

I have found this car reliable and comfortable. It is easy to maintain and service, with plenty of franchise operators available. It is generally very economic to run especially on long distances, and it cruises comfortably at 70mph with no loss of economy.

3 warranty jobs. Poor interior finish.Excellent fuel consumption. Comfortable. Excellent carrying capacity. Automatic gearbox not as smooth as I would like.

I have had this car for around 4 years and it has proved reliable and economical. I would buy another one.

great Car

Overall I am happy with the car. This car was purchased from new and so I have installed many of the hit tech options. You definitely need the rear and forward sensors as it is a long car,. I also have the rear view camera and satnav. the Satnav is accurate and trustworthy as are the traffic reports. I use it quite a lot for my commute to and from work. It has a spacious interior and a comfortable ride. My only concern is that the powershift gearbox can be laggy sometimes making it a little peculiar. The fuel economy is good for the size of the car as is the general performance. A comfortable interior with room for passengers although I feel the drivers seat isn't great on long journeys. so far reliable..

we have had the vehicle since march 2013 we have always had petrol cars this is the second diesel which I sometimes use for work I have found the mondeo's to be very good work horses the only issues we have at the moment are not starting correctly and a noisey shaft bearing but apart from that its proving its worth.

A good family hatchback would be happy to buy again.

Although starting to show its age, an extremely reliable car with plenty of power. Easy to drive; a hard act to follow.

Very satisfied with the car - never let us down.

I have had my car for five years now and if I had to get another car I would choose the same make and model. I've loved this car, reliable and spacious.

Only problem needed expensive new 'injectors after 100000 miles - but this is standard. Overall fuel economy average around 50 mpg for which I'm happy with.

The Mondeo is a lovely car to drive; it glides effortously along motorways and despite its size is quite agile in town. Petrol engine models are not easy to come by but offer excellent value for money for motorists doing less than 15k miles per year. Fuel consumption is good for a car of this size and insurance rates are low for careful drivers with good claims history.

What a great car, this is my 4th Mondeo and it will not be my last, the build quality build is excellent for the money you pay, its cheap on road tax, insurance and very economical for a car of such a size, loads of room, well happy.

Before I brought the Mondeo Estate I was originally looking at Vauxhall Astra Vans, as I do a lot of fishing in the UK and France, plus I am currently renovating my house so plenty of building work. I decided against getting a Van, as I have 2 children and a van would not be very practical in that respect. So I went for the Mondea Estate, a proper family car, a work horse and a fishing vehicle. There is so much space it is unbelievable, you can even take the back seats out to give you even more room and have a large roof box with the same volume as the boot with the seats down or for those bulky items just use a roof rack. The engine size is big enough to handle a fully loaded car and I mean fully loaded. It pulls away fine, you move through the gears quickly and can do 30mph in 5th gear. It is a dream to drive, very comfortable, handles the roads well and does roughly 450 miles on a £70 tank of petrol on a long run and roughly 370 miles around town. A friend of my has the Focus Estate and is now upgrading it to a Mondeo, I would highly recommended it.
