2007 Ford Ranger 2.5L Diesel · AK07 USZ

The Ford Ranger presents a clean roadworthiness record with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 24 June 2024 at 86,110 miles passed with no defects recorded, though the DVSA log also shows a failed entry on the same date and mileage with no defects listed, a known administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Prior tests in June 2023 at 80,915 miles, May 2022 at 75,789 miles, and June 2021 at 70,363 miles all passed with no advisories, indicating no worsening or recurring mechanical issues across the observed period. The recorded mileage of 86,110 over roughly 19 years equates to about 4,532 miles per year, which is low for a 2007 pickup. The annual increments are consistent and modest: 5,126 miles between June 2021 and May 2022, 5,126 miles to May 2023, and 5,195 miles to June 2024. No rapid accumulation or standing gaps appear in the data. The sparse, defect-free history suggests light use and basic statutory upkeep, though it offers no insight into consumable condition between tests. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and likely intermittent use. Low mileage Rangers of this era commonly develop structural corrosion on chassis members and sills even when MOT records stay clean. The tester flagged no binding calipers or exhaust emissions faults, but 19 years of age warrants checking for rust perforation not yet at test-threshold severity. Verify the 24 June 2024 failure-with-no-defects entry with DVSA to confirm it was a clerical reversal. Otherwise the record implies a structurally sound, lightly used example requiring only standard age-related scrutiny before purchase.
