Mondeo III Review

I bought this car completely by chance. I was looking at other cars, but this one caught my eye. As for the 2.0 TDCI engine, I have no complaints and it's highly recommended. The car has its flaws; it's worth checking the electrics and the undercarriage before buying. If both are in good condition, the car will serve for many years. It definitely has a lot of features for its age. In my opinion, it can break the stereotype that a diesel estate car is just a workhorse.

Pros: Excellent 2.0 TDCI engine, Plenty of features for its age, Breaks the diesel estate stereotype
Cons: Check electrics before buying, Check undercarriage before buying

Mondeo IV

A comfortable, spacious family car with durable suspension. It handles excellently. This reliable car (I've driven 100,000 km, all on LPG with injection) has had no breakdowns. It's a trustworthy car; despite being 16 years old, it still drives very well. The car doesn't consume oil and performs perfectly. Only routine maintenance like brake pads, spark plugs, filters, and tires were replaced. With 4 people and luggage, it accelerates a bit slowly, but it can still reach 160-170 km/h on the highway. [Max speed 200 km/h]

Pros: Comfortable and spacious family car, Durable suspension, Excellent handling, Reliable, no breakdowns, Trustworthy and drives well even when old, No oil consumption
Cons: Slow acceleration with full load
