2020 Ford Ranger 2.0L Diesel · WO10 ASH

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, following a clean MOT pass on 26 June 2026 at 48,845 miles where no defects were recorded. This indicates an improving maintenance trend after a previous period of neglected consumable wear. While the most recent test shows no faults, the historical data suggests that the owner only recently addressed mechanical issues that were identified in the two preceding years. At 48,845 miles over six years, the Ranger has averaged approximately 8,140 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage patterns for a commercial vehicle of this age. The record shows consistent annual testing, with roughly 9,000 miles driven between the 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 7,800 miles covered before the most recent inspection. This steady accumulation suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to excessive heavy-duty work, though the specific faults noted point to a reactive rather than proactive service intervals. The MOT history reveals a recurring issue with the front braking system. In both July 2024 and July 2025, the tester flagged both front brake discs as worn, pitted, or scored alongside thinning pads. The fact that these defects persisted from 2024 into 2025 suggests that the components were not replaced as a set when the first warning was given. The 2024 test also highlighted front tyres reaching the legal limit with uneven edge wear, indicating a potential lapse in basic maintenance or alignment checks during that period. A buyer should physically verify that the front brake discs and pads have since been replaced following the 2025 advisory to ensure stopping performance. Given the history of pitting and scoring, a close inspection of the brake calipers and fluid lines is necessary to ensure no corrosion has occurred. While no structural or suspension-related faults have been flagged in the record, the focus should remain on the current condition of the front assembly and the state of the tyres to confirm that the previous wear patterns have been fully rectified.
