2019 Ford Ranger 3.2L Diesel · S2 SFJ

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a successful MOT test on August 19, 2025, at 51,407 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the history reveals a pattern of immediate failures followed by successful passes. In both 2024 and 2025, the Ranger failed tests just two days after the scheduled appointment, suggesting that minor defects were identified and then rectified quickly before the re-test. The mileage profile is consistent with typical usage for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,300 miles per year. There is a significant gap between the May 2023 test at 28,775 miles and the August 2024 test at 45,124 miles, representing an accumulation of over 16,000 miles in fifteen months. Since the latest test, the vehicle has covered roughly 6,300 miles over the last year. This consistent usage suggests the vehicle is driven regularly, which helps protect components like seals from the corrosion often associated with long periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the areas that likely caused the recent failures, although the specific defects were not detailed in the provided summary. Given the nature of the Ranger, a close inspection of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and ball joints is essential to check for wear. The buyer should also verify the health of the brake discs and calipers to ensure no binding or uneven wear contributed to the previous failures. Since no structural rust or corrosion advisories appear in the record, the chassis likely remains sound, but any signs of fluid leaks from the undercarriage should be noted.
