Our Verdict
Exercise caution with this vehicle. Whil
Prioritise a thorough inspection of the chassis and braking system. The MOT history shows a recurring pattern of corrosion on the offside rear and nearside front brake pipes, culminating in a failure in January 2026; verify if these lines have been fully replaced or merely patched. Given the 2.5L diesel engine has covered nearly 200,000 miles, scrutinise the service history for timing belt changes and oil change intervals.
Negotiate the price based on the imminent need for suspension and brake maintenance. The records indicate a history of wear on ball joints and wheel bearings, suggesting that the vehicle's running gear is reaching the end of its typical service life.
The 2.5L diesel engine provides the necessary torque for a pickup but will incur higher road tax and insurance premiums than smaller vehicles. Fuel economy will be typical for a 2010-era diesel Ranger, though efficiency may be impacted by the vehicle's high mileage.
Maintenance costs are likely to be elevated. With a history of brake pipe corrosion, wheel bearing play, and oil leaks, the owner should budget for frequent corrective repairs to keep the vehicle roadworthy. Annual costs will be higher than average for this model due to the age-related degradation of components.
Carefully inspect the brake pipes for signs of corrosion, specifically on the offside rear, as this was a failure point in 2026 and an advisory in 2023 and 2024. Check the engine bay and underside for the oil leak noted in the January 2026 MOT to determine its source and severity.
Check the nearside front suspension, specifically the ball joint and wheel bearing, which were flagged for play and noise in 2024 and 2025. Finally, inspect all tyres for bulges or structural failure, following the 2026 failure regarding the nearside rear tyre.
This blue 2010 Ford Ranger has covered 198,300 miles, which is considerably higher than the model average. The MOT history reveals persistent issues with brake pipe corrosion dating back to 2023, along with recent failures regarding tyre integrity and an ongoing oil leak. It is a high-use utility vehicle showing expected wear for its age and mileage.
The Ford Ranger has an average MOT pass rate of 80.1%, with the most common failures typically involving headlamps, coil springs, and tyres.
