i check tyre pressures every sunday when i clean it.
last mondeo i had was same though, both company cars so im not that fussed
just brought it up for any body thinking of buying one as the person selling one is not going to mention it when your parting with your hard earned cash.

That's impressive! Was just a thought though.

I've got the Mondeo MK3 v6 and its a big heavy lump slung out over the front wheels. Experience (and my first set of fronts) tells me that you have to check the pressure regularly.

The tyres may have something to do with the 18's on the ZetecS. the 205/55X16 Michelin Pilots on mine lasted 28k on the front.
