Our Verdict
This 2020 Ford Ranger offers decent value but requires caution due to recent MOT failures and high mileage. Thorough pre-purchase inspection is essential.
Prioritise checking the headlamp alignment and windscreen condition, as these were recent MOT failures. Verify service history for repairs related to the suspension or exhaust, common issues in older Rangers. Negotiate based on the high mileage and documented faults. Be wary of potential hidden rust or bodywork damage given the black paint's tendency to highlight imperfections.
Diesel fuel economy averages 35-40 mpg, making running costs moderate. Zero road tax applies due to Euro 6 compliance. Insurance group is likely mid-range for a 2.0L diesel pickup. Maintenance costs may rise with age, particularly for the 1996cc engine and 4x4 system. Estimated annual running cost: £1,200-£1,500.
Inspect the offside headlamps for proper alignment and check for any adjustments made post-MOT. Examine the windscreen for chips or cracks that may have been missed. Test the registration plate lamp functionality and look for corrosion around the light housing. Check the suspension for unusual noises and inspect the exhaust system for leaks. Verify that the vehicle's service records match the reported mileage.
The 2020 Ford Ranger has a mixed MOT history with recent headlamp alignment issues and a damaged windscreen. At 109,973 miles, the mileage exceeds typical averages for its age, though no major defects have been recorded in most inspections. The vehicle's Euro 6 AF emissions compliance and diesel efficiency provide some reassurance.
No aggregate reliability data available for the Ford Ranger, but diesel engines of this era generally require regular maintenance.

- 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.
