2011 Ford Ranger 2.5L Diesel · LM08 ACE

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available data. The most recent test on 7 July 2023 at 173,451 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to 2019, suggesting a vehicle that has been maintained to a standard that consistently meets minimum legal requirements. The mileage accumulation is typical for a 15 year old utility vehicle. It covered 10,826 miles between February 2022 and July 2023, and roughly 13,200 miles between November 2020 and February 2022. These figures indicate regular, steady use rather than periods of prolonged standing, which generally helps prevent seals from perishing and braking components from seizing. A significant gap exists in the MOT history between July 2023 and the current date of July 2026. The vehicle has not had a recorded test for three years, meaning its current legal roadworthiness is unknown. The 2019 record shows a fail and pass on the same day at 134,778 miles, though no specific defects were listed, which often points to a minor administrative error or a quick rectification of a simple fault. A buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of the chassis and load bed for corrosion, as the MOT record is unusually clean for a 2011 Ranger. The absence of advisories regarding suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake disc wear over several years is atypical for this mileage. You should verify if the vehicle has undergone extensive off-road use or if the previous owner performed preventative maintenance that was not captured in the DVSA failure logs.
