2016 Ford Ranger 2.2L Diesel · YP66 GFV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile following its most recent test on 30 January 2026 at 97,044 miles. The maintenance trend appears reliable, as the vehicle consistently passes the inspection despite initial failures on the same dates. These failures in 2025 and 2026 without recorded defects suggest either administrative non-compliance or minor consumable issues that were rectified immediately prior to retest rather than systemic mechanical failure. The mileage pattern is consistent with a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,700 miles per annum. There is a clear progression of 18,319 miles between the September 2023 test at 62,507 miles and the January 2025 test at 80,826 miles, followed by another 16,218 miles leading up to the January 2026 test. This regular usage indicates steady, consistent operation which often helps prevent the degradation of seals and components associated with long periods of inactivity. While the record shows no recurring mechanical advisories, a buyer should perform a physical inspection of the suspension components and braking system. Given the nearly 100,000-mile mark, checking for wear on rubber bushes, coil spring fatigue, and brake disc thickness is prudent. The chassis should also be examined for structural corrosion, particularly on the underbody mounting points, as vehicles of this age are prone to surface rust over a decade of use.
