Our Verdict
This is a solid option for those seeking a relatively modern Ford Ranger with a consistent MOT record. The vehicle shows a history of passing tests without recorded defects, making it a credible candidate for inspection.
When inspecting this Ranger, focus on the diesel engine's responsiveness and check for any signs of heavy off-road or commercial use, which is common for this model. Although the MOT history shows no recorded defects, you should still verify that the service history matches the mileage increments seen in the records.
Negotiate based on the mileage, as the vehicle has covered approximately 12,000 miles per year, which is higher than the aggregate model average of 9,720 miles. Ensure you check the condition of the tyres and headlamps, as these are statistically the most common failure points for the Ford Ranger across the wider dataset.
As a 2.0L diesel, running costs will be heavily influenced by annual mileage and load capacity. You should expect moderate fuel economy typical of a modern diesel pickup, though this will vary based on driving style and payload.
Tax and insurance groups for a 2020 Ranger can vary significantly depending on the specific trim level and engine output. Maintenance costs should be budgeted for regular diesel engine servicing and potential replacements of wear items like tyres and springs, which are noted as common failure points for this model.
Given the aggregate data for this model, pay close attention to the headlamps and coil springs during your physical inspection. While this specific vehicle had no defects recorded in its recent MOTs, these components are statistically prone to issues in the wider Ranger population.
Check the tyre tread depth and condition across all four wheels, as tyre failure is a top reason for MOT failures in this model group. Additionally, inspect the underside for any signs of excessive wear or damage that might not have been flagged in previous clean MOT tests.
Registered in September 2020, this orange 2.0L diesel Ford Ranger has covered 64,535 miles as of its last MOT in November 2025. The MOT history shows three consecutive passes since its first recorded test in 2023, with no defects noted in the most recent successful inspection. While it has seen an increase in annual mileage compared to the model average, the documentation remains consistent.
The Ford Ranger shows an average MOT pass rate of 80.0% across the 153,693 vehicles analysed.
