2015 Ford Ranger 2.2L Diesel · DC06 PUB

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent maintenance trend over the last five years. The most recent inspection on 9 May 2026 at 97,109 miles passed without any defects, although the tester noted that under-trays were obscuring certain testable items. This suggests that while the vehicle is currently roadworthy, a thorough physical inspection of the chassis and lower suspension components is limited by the presence of these protective guards. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a commercial pickup truck, averaging approximately 8,800 miles per annum. There is a notable gap of 11,331 miles recorded between August 2022 at 84,035 miles and August 2023 at 95,376 miles. Since then, the vehicle has covered only 1,733 miles in the three years leading up to the latest test. This recent drop in mileage suggests lower use, which can occasionally lead to flat spotted tyres or seized brake components if the vehicle is not driven regularly. A buyer should focus on the under-trays mentioned in the May 2026 report to ensure no hidden corrosion has developed on the structural frame or brake lines. The failure in August 2023 regarding the offside front headlamp and aim was a minor electrical and alignment issue that was rectified quickly, evidenced by the subsequent pass. Given the low recent mileage, an inspection of the rubber suspension bushes for cracking and the condition of brake discs is essential, as these components often degrade through age rather than high mileage alone.
