Ford Ranger Wildtrak Tdci 4x4 Auto (2020)
2020 Ford Ranger Wildtrak Tdci 4x4 Auto
CarHunch analysed 144 real MOT records for the 2020 Ford Ranger Wildtrak Tdci 4x4 Auto. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
The 2020 Ford Ranger Wildtrak TDCi is a significant reliability concern: only 40.5% pass their MOT first time, half the UK average of 80%. There are no recorded dangerous defects in this cohort, which is positive, but the low pass rate suggests systemic issues that buyers need to investigate before purchase.
At a median mileage of 46,557 miles, these vehicles are relatively low-mileage for their age, yet they're still failing MOTs at twice the national rate—this points to design or build quality problems rather than wear-and-tear. Before committing to one, get a pre-purchase inspection focusing on the specific failure patterns in this model, and budget for early repairs beyond the warranty period.
What to check before buying a 2020 Ford Ranger Wildtrak Tdci 4x4 Auto
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
