Ford Mondeo Hatchback (2007 - 2014) 1.8 TDCi (100bhp) Edge 5d Owner Review

Very disappointing but then I had been warned about buying a Ford...... broke down on it's 3rd long-ish trip leaving me floundering in the middle lane of a motorway. Ended up getting recovered due to a faulty injector (seems Ford had a duff batch installed). Next, as the winter came on, headlights all fogged up and water built up inside, apparently another common problem. Then I discovered the boot was leaking in 2 places and the gear I kept in the boot had soaked most of it up so that got all damp and mouldy. Then once I'd removed my gear, the carpets and seat belts started getting mouldy so every time it rained I had to mop out the water with kitchen roll. When I was quoted £800 for auxiliary belts I decided the car was more effort than it was worth, particularly as when the car was cold it was like driving a tractor through a ploughed field...... I won't be returning to Ford, ever.
