FORD RANGER2016 · 3.2L Diesel

The 2016 Ford Ranger presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent MOT test on 8 February 2025 at 76,442 miles which returned a pass with no defects recorded. Across the four subsequent annual tests from January 2022 to February 2025, the vehicle cleared each examination without advisories or noted wear, indicating consistent mechanical condition over the period reviewed. Annual mileage sits at a typical level for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 7,644 miles per year against the recorded 76,442 miles. The records show steady accumulation: 44,080 miles in January 2022, 52,026 miles in January 2023, 66,222 miles in February 2024, and 76,442 miles in February 2025. No abrupt jumps or standing periods are visible. The sole blemish is a failed test on 6 January 2022 at 44,080 miles, reversed the next day on 7 January 2022 at identical mileage with a pass and no defects logged, suggesting an administrative or minor rectification rather than a substantive fault. Given the clean advisory history, the Ranger shows no recurring suspension bushes, coil spring, brake disc, or corrosion issues across the timeline. The absence of flagged exhaust emissions or structural integrity concerns implies previous owners kept basic upkeep current. A single same-mileage fail-and-pass pair points to either a paperwork error or a trivial correction, not neglected consumables. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of chassis rails, subframe, and suspension mounts for hidden rust given the vehicle's age and pick-up classification. Verify brake caliper operation and tyre sidewall condition despite no tester advisories. The spotless record warrants confirmation that the 2022 failure was not a suppressed defect, but overall the evidence supports a well-maintained example.
