2016 Ford Mondeo Titanium Review
Owner Review | 31 May 2019
Flashback to 2013. The all new Ford Fusion was launched in the North American market to rave reviews. Its styling, in particular, was generally well liked, especially the front end with the new Ford corporate design language, dubbed Kinetic 2.0, that made its début on the Ford Evos concept car of 2011, which heavily influenced the design of the Ford Fusion. I have to admit, I didn’t initially fall in love with it, as it was quite a radical departure from the more conservative designs that preceded it. But I remained interested in what the Fusion offered, knowing that its European cousin, the Mondeo, will soon be released, and so I began the quest to find every review of the new Fusion on YouTube. Suffice it to say, I started liking the Fusion more and more, and longed for the release of the Mondeo. Upon the Australian launch of the Mondeo, I went to have a look for myself, and was immediately impressed with what I saw. The car looked stunning, and to my eyes at least, it remains one of, if not the best looking car in the medium car segment. The glasshouse and the rear of the car is a clever evolution of the MA-MC series Mondeo that preceded it, while the Aston-Martin inspired front end works very well with the Mondeo Titanium. Coming from a BF Fairmont, which I have reviewed several months ago on this site, what I found to be particularly impressive with the Mondeo was the quality of the interior. Sure, there are still cheap plastics if you look hard enough, and the design is somewhat conservative, but the overall impression is that of a much more premium car, with lashings of soft touch plastics and good quality leather, as well as doors that close with a solid ‘thunk’ that makes the car look and feel more expensive than it is. I can say with some conviction that the new Mondeo is the most premium feeling car that Ford has ever put on sale in the Australian market. I took delivery of my Mondeo Titanium Ecoboost, in pearlescent White Platinum Tri-Coat paint, in May 2016. It comes standard with almost all the technological gadgetry I could possibly want. The only option box I ticked, aside from the paint ($550 extra), was the 18-inch 10 twin-spoke alloys ($1,551 extra) to replace the standard 18-inch 20 spoke rims. The wheels I really wanted – the 19-inch 5 twin-spoke alloys that are now available on the Mondeo Titanium, sadly weren’t available at the time of purchase. I intend to upgrade to those 19-inch rims as soon as I can afford them, though. Aside from the usual safety features such as AEB, ESC, TC, lane keeping and blind spot monitoring, the feature-packed top of the range Titanium comes standard with 10 way power adjustable front seats with three position memory for the driver; power adjustable steering column with rake and reach adjustment, with an ‘Easy Access’ feature that slides the driver’s seat back and raises the steering column after the ignition is switched off to allow easy egress; an 8-colour ambient lighting system which emits a soft glow at night in the front and rear foot wells, front door pockets, front centre console and interior door handles; reverse dipping mirrors; power fold exterior mirrors; auto dimming interior mirror and driver’s side wing mirror; heated driver’s side mirror; heated windscreen; heated front and rear seats; inflatable outer rear seatbelts that inflates to twice its width in the event of a collision to lessen the force exerted on the wearer; and a part-digital instrument cluster. Completing the premium look of the car is a panoramic glass roof; and dynamic LED headlights that swivel to aid vision around corners, along with ‘scrolling’ LED front indicators. Curiously, the lack of air conditioned seats is a notable omission. I’m left to wonder why Ford Australia has chosen to equip the Mondeo heated front and rear seats without also equipping them with a cooling function, especially in the warm climate that we have here in Australia, and given that cooled seats is available as an option in the North American market Fusion. Other notable omissions are a hands-free tailgate that made its début in the Kuga, and a remote start feature that is available in the Fusion. So, with all this technology, does it all work? Mostly. I have yet to test AEB, ESC and TC for reasons that should be obvious. They’re technology that you hope you never have to rely on. The lane keeping assist does its job of steering the car away from the lane markings if the driver is to stray too close, but it does not position the car into the centre of the lane by itself. The driver has to make a steering input to position the car in the centre of the lane. Failure to do so will result in the system prompting the driver to keep their hands on the steering wheel. The system falls short of the state-of-the art at the moment, available in most luxury cars. This is not a system that will do the steering for the driver, even for a moment. The Adaptive Cruise Control can sometimes be too eager to apply the brakes if a car cuts into the lane in front, instead of gradually slowing down to match its speed. Worse still, it can apply the brakes while going through a bend in the road, as it can be tricked into thinking that the car ahead is directly in front and within the pre-set following distance, albeit that due to the curvature in the road, it’s actually in the next lane. Perhaps that is my own fault for setting the ACC’s following distance to just one bar, giving the car less time to react if another car was to cut into the space between my car and the car in front. Though I feel that there are some issues to be ironed out, it never behaves unpredictably, and I have learnt when to deactivate the cruise control and control my speed manually if I think the system is going to slow the car suddenly – such as if another car was to cut into the space in front of my car. The other bugbear with the Mondeo’s suite of technology is the Pre-Collision Warning system, which flashes bright red LEDs positioned on top of the dash and sounds a rather loud chime when it thinks it has detected an imminent collision. On some rare occasions, the Pre-Collision Warning system gave me quite a fright when it sounded, although there appeared to be nothing ahead of me. In hindsight, it may have been a small bird attempting suicide by flying low across the bow of my car, though. On the road, the Mondeo is a quiet, comfortable and refined cruiser. The cabin is very quiet at idle, while at highway speeds, the standard 235/45R18 Continental ContiSportContact 5 tyres emits a drone which can be heard from the cabin. Not only that, they tend to wear quickly – I replaced the front set of tyres after only 25,000km. When it comes time to replace the tyres again, I will try a different tyre to see if it reduces cabin noise at highway speeds. While I have yet to stretch its legs and take it on a long road trip, the big Mondeo is more than capable of performing the daily errands with little fuss. The 2.0-litre Ecoboost engine produces effortless low end power, which punches the big Mondeo off the line deceptively quickly, while the six speed automatic smoothly changes through the gears, all with the minimum of fuss. When overtaking, the box promptly kicks down to make use of the Mondeo’s relatively flat torque curve – its 345Nm maximum torque is delivered from 2,300rpm all the way to 4,900rpm. The Ecoboost engine may have the same capacity as a bottle of milk, but it behaves very much like a bigger engine with heaps of low end power on tap, and a fairly flat torque curve. Performance wise, there’s very little between my 2.0-litre Mondeo and my 4.0-litre Fairmont. I haven’t put timing equipment in them, but seat of the pants impression is that the Fairmont is marginally quicker in a standing start, but it’s the turbocharged Mondeo by a mile in rolling starts. The price to pay for that performance, however, is fuel consumption. Despite the claimed 8.5L/100km fuel economy, over the time that I have owned the car, using it on daily errands on a mix of highway and city driving, my average is around 9.5L/100km. Being a big, heavy car, it can be quite thirsty if used in stop-start traffic, or if you drive it like it’s stolen. The electric power steering is accurate, if somewhat lacking in feedback, and with the adaptive dampers set to ‘Comfort’ – the softest of the three settings available, and my preferred setting, the Mondeo absorbs most of the bumps that the worst of Perth roads has to offer, but sharp bumps such as speed humps and pot holes can still send a jolt through the cabin, although the car is never unsettled. It remains composed and reasonably athletic for a car its size, with little body roll to speak of. The ‘Sport’ setting firms up the steering and the ride, but it does so without any appreciable benefit in handling. That said, I have yet to push the car any more than, say, five-tenths. Maybe the benefits of the ‘Sport’ setting will become more evident if I were to push harder. In between these two is the ‘Normal’ setting, which, as its name suggests, is in between the ‘Comfort’ and ‘Sport’ settings. Inside the lush cabin, the driving position and the front seats are both excellent. With 10 way power adjustment, I imagine it would be difficult not to find the perfect position for most people. That said, the thick A and B pillars and the relatively high waist line, as well as the high dash impair visibility somewhat. The A pillar can sometimes block the driver’s view of oncoming traffic at T-junctions and/or roundabouts. Parking in tight spots can be a challenge as well, but thankfully, the car is equipped with both front and rear parking sensors, as well as a reversing camera, which projects a reasonably clear image of the view behind the car. The resolution of the camera could be better, though. Unfortunately, while the reverse camera is engaged, it is not possible to use any other function on the Sync 2 infotainment system, including voice control. Despite being an older system, Sync 2 is very easy to navigate and use. The seats are trimmed in what Ford assures me is genuine leather, although there are two noticeably different grades – the seat base and backrest, which is partly perforated, is trimmed in ‘Solerno’ leather – a softer, more supple leather than that used on the bolster, headrest, and the seat backs, with those areas trimmed with a noticeably grainier ‘genuine’ leather. The back seats were also decent, with more than adequate knee room and toe room, although persons taller than my tiny 172cm stature might find rear headroom a bit tight in the panoramic roof equipped Titanium hatch. I guess that’s the price to be paid for a sleek, sloping roofline. The outboard seats in the rear bench gets inflatable seatbelts, which is a little bit bulkier than a standard seatbelt and may take some getting used to. Like the front seats, the back seats are trimmed in a mix of two different grades of leather: the seat base and the backrest get Solerno leather, while the bolster and headrests get grainier ‘genuine’ leather. The rear centre seat misses out on Solerno altogether. I mentioned earlier in this review about how impressed I was at the interior of the Mondeo. Unfortunately, the exterior is a different story. Panel alignment can be variable, and as far as I’m aware, mine isn’t the only car that suffers from this. Alignment may only be a few millimetres out, but it is noticeable. The worst issue that I have with my car is that there’s an approximately three millimetre gap between the right rear tail lamp and the rear bumper, when it should be flush. Attempts have been made by panel shops to fix the issue, and while there has been a definite improvement since it’s been in the panel shop, it still remains imperfect. But I’m not going to let three millimetres affect my enjoyment of the car, which has largely been positive. In its sales brochure, Ford states that in creating the Mondeo, it had set out to “create a car that encapsulates the spirit of elegance without arrogance. Confidence without pretentiousness. And style with substance.” While the concept is sound, there’s definitely room for improvement in its execution. The Mondeo Titanium is a luxurious, refined, comfortable highway cruiser that effortlessly eats up the long distances with ease, and despite its flaws, it remains one of the best in class for its combination of performance, refinement, comfort and handling, and to my eyes, one of the best looking cars in this segment.
2015 Ford Mondeo Ambiente TdCi Review
Owner Review | 2 May 2019
Fleet cars. I have had a few of them, Commodores, Camry’s, Territory’s, I even had a Volvo once. I think half the Mondeo’s Ford sell go to fleets as they are every where when you go to a trade show or the pub at 1pm on a Friday. The Mondeo I currently drive I’ve had for a tick over 3 years and 155,00 Kms. This is the first diesel car I have had for a long period of time; the fuel economy is quite good averaging 6.1 l per 100 kms , that’s what t lovely multi-function thingy tells me. It’s a 2.0 turbo diesel mated to a DCT transmission this can be a good and bad combination the good is that it has willing power when you give it the boot or put it in ‘S’ mode the bad is that it’s quite lethargic from takeoff as the turbo spools up and I find that if I jump into my wife’s Camry I tend to snap my neck back like it’s a drag racer . also, a diesel Ranger I have had as a loan car has almost instant power so It can’t just be a diesel thing! The gearbox is mostly a good thing although I suspect it may have a part to play in the languid takeoffs, its mostly smooth and unobtrusive unless you are reversing up a steep driveway then it slips like crazy and eventually cries enough and just let’s go with you now going down a steep driveway! Also, the stop start system is infuriating there is quite a delay in hopping of the brake the engine coming to life and it engaging a gear and going, not good for roundabout and t sections, not to mention the air-conditioning stops cooling when it engages. its easy to turn off with a button it does however turn itself back on each time you start the car. The interior is the same as most Ford products a bit drab with a few good thinks shining out at you, the infotainment system is good as are the back lit gauges and the steering wheel is a pearler! As is the trip computer multi-function thingy screen between the gauges, on the other hand the 5 or 6 shades of grey / silver plastic throughout the dash is not good the seats are a tad flat. There is plenty of room for 4 adults with good leg room although the windows are small and you have a slight “bunker” feel the rear cargo area is quite large I would say bigger than the commodore SportWagen I previously had. Doing the K’s that I do per year I prefer comfort over handling and the Mondeo has it in spades, it rides quite well not bouncy or jittery at all, in fact it is that most comfortable car I have had, it eats up the km’s well . Handling is good, it has nicely waited steering and has some feedback when turning. it is also very quiet inside with just a hint of diesel rattle at idle and some small vibrations in the steering wheel, it does however sound like a tractor on the outside. In the time I have had it nothing has fallen off or requited any warranty work, just regular 15000Km servicing 1 set of rotors and pads and 2 sets of tyres and 2 headlight globes, which to replace you need to remove the front bumper! These Mondeos are on sale for 30k if you hunt around, I think that’s a pretty good deal for a large economical and comfortable car, although the base model does miss a lot of the new safety gear such as AEB, Blind spot monitoring etc. Alas my time is almost up with this one, its been a goody!
2013 Ford Mondeo Titanium TDCi review
Owner Review | 10 Aug 2018
Confirmed cardie-wearer. That’s what one of my mates called me after I told him I’d just bought a used Mondeo. Ha. Ha. Truth is, the MC Mondeo is an overlooked gem of a car, at least in its Titanium guise. Power comes from a 2.0l 4-banger turbodiesel, delivering 120kw @ 4000rpm and 320Nm at just 1850rpm, and you can feel it off the line. It’s no pocket rocket, but the easy nature of its torque delivery means a fuss-free start and linear acceleration up to 80kp/h. Rolling acceleration from 80-120 is a little slower than I’d like, but that’s easily mitigated by leaving a larger gap for overtaking. Where it shines is the handling. Most bum-draggers are about as exciting to drive as it is to get a hand-knitted jumper from your Nan at Christmas – and they leave you feeling about the same, i.e. kind of empty. Thanks, Nan. But the Mondeo is different. 18x8 wheels shod with 235/45 rubber means plenty of road surface contact area, and the feedback through the hydraulic power assisted steering is excellent while on the move. I always know where the car is on the road, what it’s doing, and what’s underneath it. Such a breath of fresh air, especially in such a low sticker price vehicle. Speaking of which, these things make great buying second-hand. Thanks to their reputation as a mixture of beigeness and tapioca pudding they’ve depreciated like crazy, which means you can pick up a 60,000km 2013 Titanium for 14-17k. (Pay no attention to the “tell ‘im he’s dreamin’” prices on Carsales. Supply is higher than demand for these cars, which means you have the upper hand come haggling time.) Diesel and petrol seem to go for roughly the same amount but do be aware that the petrol model will have significantly higher fuel costs than the diesel. I’m averaging 6.7l per 100km, which is around an 80/20 highway/urban split. The petrol model will run you 11l per 100km around town, depending on your driving style. (My 6.7l figure is also inclusive of a VERY heavy right foot… within the limits of the law, of course.) You also get leather/Alcantara heated seats, voice control for most in-cabin functions, blind spot monitoring, auto cruise control, forward collision alert and a sunroof. No sunglasses holder though. (Pro tip – they fit in between the gear selector and the centre console quite nicely.) You can also replace the original stereo with an aftermarket double din unit if you’re not fussed about losing voice control. Cabin storage is only OK. There’s no lining in the door pockets, so items placed in there will rattle, and the cupholders are bare plastic, so not all containers will be secured properly which can be an issue given the heated seat controls are located right next to them. The glovebox has a narrow opening and goes straight back rather than down, so getting things in and out of it is a challenge when seated. The centre console pocket is a decent size, with a two-stage lid/tray mechanism to maximise use of the space. This is, btw, the only place a modern sized smart phone will fit. That alluring little cubby beneath the aircon controls is only good for coins and trolley tokens. Aside from that one commonly reported cabin-related bugbear is an intermittent squeak from the B pillar, which seems to be caused by loose or rubbing plastic parts in the seatbelt assembly. Others have reported being able to get rid of it by replacing these parts, but I’m too lazy to bother. YMMV. Body styles. I opted for the wagon in delicious Candy Red, and it looks mint with the chrome accents around the windows plus the extra bits of body kit. It’s only marginally longer than a normal sedan, but thanks to that extra height in the back, plus the fold-flat rear seats, there’s over two metres of length available for carrying stuff. Flat packs from Ikea, bags and bags of grass clippings, lopped tree limbs, luggage for four people… there’s space aplenty in this thing. It’s a great alternative to a dual cab ute because you have as much if not more cargo space, and you get the driving dynamics and comfort of a sedan instead of the agricultural ambience of a work vehicle. Servicing. Tyres for this car are expensive. I have Michelin Pilot Sport 4’s on mine, and the last two I had replaced cost $620 fitted, aligned and balanced. I’ve also refreshed the brake pads and rotors with DBA parts for around $540 (not including fitting). Ford will charge you around $950 for OEM parts. The other considerable cost is transmission servicing. These cars have a dual clutch box, and Ford will charge you $40 per litre of oil. The oil and filter must be changed every 60,000km, and the procedure requires 8l, so if you’re going through a dealer it gets very expensive, very quickly. Fortunately, there are several brands that make compatible oil, and you can pick up 8l for around $150 plus the relevant filter kit for $35ish. If you’re buying one of these cars, make sure the transmission was serviced on time. Check for the stamp in the logbook at 60,000km and call the mechanic who did the work and ask them to confirm it as well. These boxes will die and die quickly if they are not serviced on time, and having to pay $9000 for a new transmission is no fun. General services have cost me around $350 through my own mechanic, with 15,000km intervals. Cons. Specifically, the air conditioning. If you’ve read other reviews of the MC, you’ll likely have come across people complaining that they don’t get particularly cold. Well, I can tell you they are correct. The Mondeo’s climate control system produces something more akin to a cool breeze than an Arctic blast, which means that in 36c+ temperatures, you’ll be “not dying of heatstroke” rather than “relaxing in Aspen”. If you envisage driving long distances in high temperatures on a regular basis, I’d suggest looking at a different car. The MC also has a propensity for chewing tyres to death if it isn’t kept in proper balance/alignment. Make sure to ask your mechanic to check for any signs of uneven wear on the inner edges of the tyres before you buy. If it’s present, you’ll need to get an alignment done. You will also experience more road noise than you should if you don’t buy decent tyres for this vehicle. Their large contact area means that the noise they produce is amplified to greater degree than on other cars, so do your ears and your driving enjoyment a favour, and don’t skimp. I went from Bridgestone RE050A’s to Pilot Sport 4’s, and the difference in noise levels (and ride compliance) is stark. Lastly, that dual clutch transmission might bother you. It took me about a week to get used to it, and about a month to adapt my driving style to its quirks. It’s extremely snappy on the gear changes which imparts a sporty feel, but from a standing start the accelerator requires a moment’s feathering before you can tramp down on it. Otherwise you’ll be rewarded with a bang and a lurch, and no more speed than you would have otherwise gotten. To me this is part and parcel of its appeal as a driver’s car – even though it’s an auto, it’s still asking something of you beyond the normal point and shoot approach. It even has a Sports mode, should you want to do the gear changes yourself… In summary, the MC Mondeo is an enjoyable and rewarding drive, but make sure to have any example you look at checked by your mechanic before you purchase, paying special attention to tyre wear, and whether the transmission has been properly serviced at 60,000 and 120,000km. (Cardigan ownership optional.)

2012 Ford Mondeo Titanium TDCi review
Owner Review | 6 Sep 2017
Before I start, I'm a 14 year old that is interested in cars, so here is a review of my Mother's MC Ford Mondeo Titanuim TDCi. We upgraded from a Territory TX, so it was a nice welcome to the European segment. This car is incredibly well priced in the used car segment, with most examples fetching under $20,000. And that is for a range topping Titanuim. The Mondeo here in Australia is not as popular as the Mighty Falcon, but it is still a great car. The ride that is produced my the Mondeo is really smooth, and for the driver the dynamics and handling of the car is quite typical of a European Ford, Excellent. Although the road noise is louder than other cars in my experience. The Mondeo is equipped with many safety features which other cars new today (2017) still only offer as an option. Those safety features include- Blind Spot Information System, Forward Collision Alert, and Adaptive Cruise Control, as well as a suite of Airbags. The Engine provides an Excellent response and driving experience, with a 2.0 Litre PSA sourced 4 Cylinder Diesel Engine, connected with a (controversial) Double-Clutch PowerShift Transmission. On a trip we drove from Melbourne to Sydney, on one tank of Diesel, quite impressive. To date this has been a very reliable car, keeping it serviced regularly at a Ford dealership. The boot could possibly fit in a Ford Fiesta, it is genuinely that big! Unfortunately- The PowerSift transmission can be rough at times around town, which can make for an unpleasant experience, but this is to me expected from a Double Clutch. Other examples from Europe have navigation built into the Convers+ (Interface in instrument cluster) so I'm not sure why we did not get this feature. And the turning circle can be annoying at times, mostly in suburban areas and car parks where the steering is on full lock The above cons have been fixed with the Current MD Mondeo. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a premium used car at a lower price point. This Mondeo is better than Superb (no pun intended) Stay tuned for more Car reviews from me :) -Sam
