Our Verdict
A highly recommended purchase for those needing a capable 2.0L diesel pickup. The exceptionally clean MOT record suggests a vehicle that has been meticulously maintained despite its working nature.
Focus your attention on the service history to ensure the 2.0L diesel engine has had regular oil and filter changes, as these are critical for long-term reliability in high-mileage pickups. Check for any evidence of heavy off-roading or chassis corrosion, which can occur regardless of a clean MOT if the vehicle has been used in salty or muddy environments.
Since the MOT history is virtually spotless, use this as a baseline for negotiation. Ensure the timing belt or chain intervals (depending on the specific engine variant) have been adhered to, as this is the most significant maintenance item for a vehicle approaching 80,000 miles.
As a 2.0L diesel, this Ranger offers a balance of torque and efficiency, though fuel costs will be higher than a standard car. Expect moderate fuel economy typical of a mid-size pickup, and check the specific CO2 emissions for the exact VED tax band applicable to this 2020 model.
Insurance for the Ranger can vary significantly based on the driver's profile and the vehicle's modifications. Maintenance costs are generally predictable, though tyres for these vehicles are more expensive than those for passenger cars. Annual costs will be driven primarily by fuel and the periodic replacement of heavy-duty wear items.
While the MOT history shows no defects up to 78,058 miles, you should still perform a physical inspection of the underbody. Check for any signs of rust or damage to the suspension components, as these are common wear points for pickups that may not always trigger an immediate MOT failure.
Inspect the interior for wear consistent with the 78,000-mileage mark and ensure all 4x4 engagement systems operate smoothly. Specifically, look for any leaks around the engine bay and check the condition of the brakes, as the lack of MOT advisories suggests they are currently healthy, but they will eventually require replacement based on usage patterns.
This black 2020 Ford Ranger has covered 78,058 miles since December 2020, averaging roughly 13,000 miles per year. Its MOT history is remarkably clean, with no recorded defects across multiple tests, indicating a high standard of upkeep. Given the lack of advisory notices, this example presents as a reliable and well-cared-for utility vehicle.
Aggregate data is unavailable, but this specific vehicle's history of zero defects across multiple years suggests a very reliable individual example.

- Common-Rail Fuel Injector Failure and RecallSerious
Both early 2.2 and 3.2 Duratorq diesels and early 2.0 EcoBlue engines suffer from injector failure. In 2015, Ford recalled nearly 14,000 UK Rangers for faulty injector batches that caused engines to cut out without warning while driving. Failed injectors suffer from high leak-back rates or internal nozzle jamming, leading to cylinder bore wash, uneven fueling, violent knocking, and melted pistons.
- Manual and Automatic Transmission Shudder and Shift FaultsModerate
Manual T6 Rangers frequently suffer from stiff third-gear selection, worn synchromesh rings, and dual-mass flywheel rattle under heavy towing. Automatic variants (6R80 6-speed and later 10R80 10-speed) can exhibit harsh low-speed shifting, gear slip flare, and torque converter shudder. In addition, an official recall addressed gearshift selector cables that could unclip and foul the rear driveshaft.
- Chassis Box Section Corrosion and Rear Spring Hanger RotSerious
The T6 Ranger features a fully boxed steel ladder chassis that readily traps road salt, farm slurry, and abrasive mud washed into internal frame openings. Without regular high-pressure flushing and cavity rustproofing, the metal corrodes from the inside out. Structural rot attacks the rear spring hanger brackets, spare wheel cross-member, and chassis rails around the fuel tank, causing catastrophic MOT structural failure.
