2020 Ford Ranger 2.0L Diesel · OU70 KWC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with an improving maintenance trend following a period of reactive mechanical repairs. The most recent test in November 2025 at 59,304 miles resulted in a pass with only a minor advisory regarding a damaged windscreen. This represents a positive shift from the October 2024 inspection where the vehicle failed due to significant mechanical and suspension issues. The subsequent pass without further defects suggests that the previous owner addressed the critical faults identified during that failed test. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a typical-use commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per year. Between the October 2023 test at 43,931 miles and the October 2024 test at 54,417 miles, the vehicle covered over 10,000 miles in twelve months. This steady usage indicates the truck has not suffered from long periods of standing, which helps prevent seal degradation and fluid breakdown, though it explains the standard wear on consumables and suspension components seen in the record. A buyer should physically inspect the front suspension components to ensure the fractured offside front coil spring noted in 2024 was replaced with a high-quality part and that no secondary stress damage exists in the mounting points. The engine management light failure from late 2024 also warrants a diagnostic scan to confirm the underlying fault was fully rectified and that no intermittent codes remain in the memory. Given the previous advisories for worn rear tyres in 2023, a check of the current tyre alignment is necessary to ensure there is no active uneven wear that would indicate a geometry issue.
