2016 Ford Ranger 2.2L Diesel · LL16 ABO

The 2025‑10‑07 MOT at 81,775 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating that the vehicle remains roadworthy and that the maintenance record shows a stable, non‑deteriorating trend. The odometer reading of 81,775 miles after ten years averages about 8,200 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a 2016 Ranger. Mileage increments are consistent: from 10,426 miles in May 2019 to 25,392 miles in October 2020 shows a 14,966‑mile jump in one year, after which the annual increase settles to roughly 8,000 miles, reflecting regular use rather than long periods of standing. Recurring issues are limited to a light oil mist on the near‑side front shock absorbers noted in the 2024 test at 70,783 miles, and a headlamp aim fault at the initial 2019 failure, both of which were rectified before subsequent passes. No repeated defects appear in brakes, suspension bushes, coil springs, or structural components, suggesting that previous owners addressed the early headlamp issue and maintained the suspension. A buyer should therefore inspect the condition of the front shock absorbers and associated suspension bushes, verify that the coil springs show no sag or corrosion, examine brake discs and calipers for binding or excessive wear, and check the chassis and underbody for rust or structural damage. The exhaust system and emission levels should also be confirmed as compliant, given the clean MOT history.
