Hi, intersted in the Mondeo. Can anyone advise the engine reliability and maintenance cost?

My experience with Vag car is after 4 years, wear & tear problems started to surface. I spend quite a sum for the repair.

What is a Vag car?

 

I used to own a Ford Mondeo also (2nd generation). That car had various issues cropping up near the end of its warranty period of 5 years. By the 7th year, had to trade in for another. Despite the reliability issues, I loved the Mondeo. I love its handling and its look.

 

If the price is right, factoring that I may not be able to drive it for a full 10 years, I would not hesitate to get another Mondeo.

 

Mondeos doors does not seem to have any internal bracing. A contact with a door from another car will cause a ding. I notice the same for the 3rd Gen mondeo.

Can't think of anything bad.

Trade in my mk3 for an 08 mk4 six months ago and have not spent a cent on repairs or replacement part.

Good styling, spacious, excellent handling, adequate power, and a fun auto/manual gearbox.
