2006 Ford Ranger 2.5L Diesel · 7033 CD

The 2006 Ford Ranger presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 26 March 2026 at 21,060 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of clean MOT results across the available history. The recorded mileage shows exceptionally light use for a 20-year-old pickup. The tester logged 16,362 miles on 17 November 2021, rising to 17,289 by 12 December 2022, then 17,748 on 26 March 2024, 18,530 on 26 March 2025, and 21,060 on 26 March 2026. That averages roughly 1,000 miles per year. A gap exists between the November 2021 and December 2022 tests exceeding the standard twelve-month cycle, implying the vehicle stood unused or was off-road for a period. Low annual mileage and a clean record suggest careful, infrequent use rather than neglect of consumables through high wear. No advisories or failures appear in the supplied records, so the history gives no direct signal of suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or structural corrosion requiring attention. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the chassis, as the Ranger's age and likely prolonged standing invite hidden rust on crossmembers and suspension mounts not captured by pass-only tests. Given the sparse but clean data, verify the odometer against service stamps and confirm the 2021 to 2022 gap reason. Check tyres and brake calipers for perishing from disuse, and assess the exhaust for internal rot. The record supports a sound purchase premise, pending hands-on confirmation of structural integrity.
