2022 Ford Ranger 2.0L Diesel · AV72 HBO

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 19 November 2025 with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates that at the time of testing, the vehicle met the minimum legal standards for safety, lighting, and emissions. Based on this recent result, the maintenance trend appears stable, suggesting that the vehicle has been maintained sufficiently to avoid the common structural or mechanical failures typically flagged during annual inspections. With 62,547 miles recorded over approximately four years, this Ford Ranger has averaged roughly 15,637 miles per year. This represents a high level of usage compared to the UK average, suggesting the vehicle has likely been used for regular long-distance commuting or commercial purposes. While consistent usage can often mean a vehicle has been regularly warmed up and maintained, it also implies more rapid wear on consumable components such as suspension bushes, brake pads, and tyres. Prospective buyers should be aware that the drivetrain and suspension elements will have undergone significantly more mechanical stress than a lower-mileage equivalent. Since the MOT record is clean, your physical inspection should focus on wear-and-tear items that may not have reached a failure threshold yet. Given the high annual mileage, pay close attention to the condition of the tyres, specifically looking for uneven tread wear which could indicate suspension geometry issues or worn shock absorbers. Inspect the brake discs for deep scoring or heavy lip formation, and during the test drive, listen for any grinding or pulsation that might suggest binding calipers or warped discs. You should also check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for any signs of sagging or excessive movement. Furthermore, because the vehicle has covered significant distance, you must verify the service history to ensure oil and filter changes have been performed at the correct intervals, as high-mileage diesel engines are highly sensitive to lubrication quality. Check the battery health and inspect the engine bay for any signs of fluid leaks from the cooling system or gearbox. Under the vehicle, look for signs of corrosion on the exhaust and chassis, and ensure there are no unusual clunks or knocks when navigating uneven surfaces, which would indicate worn ball joints or mounting components.
