- Payload: Typically ranges from 1,000kg to 1,280kg, depending on the variant (e.g., XL Super Cab 4x2 often highest).

What to Look For When Buying Used
- DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) Issues: Common on all modern Diesels, especially if previously used for short journeys. Look for DPF warning lights or inquire about its regeneration history. A blocked DPF can be costly.
- Timing Chain/Belt:
- 2.2L/3.2L DuraTorq: These engines use a timing chain designed to last the life of the vehicle, but check for abnormal rattling noises which could indicate wear.
- 2.0L EcoBlue: Also uses a timing chain, but some earlier examples (pre-2020) have known issues with oil pump belt design *failure, which can lead to catastrophic engine damage. Ensure service history confirms any required preventative maintenance or recall work.
- Rust Spots: Check the chassis, rear leaf springs, rear bumper, and load bed for significant rust, particularly older models and those used off-road or in coastal areas.
- Clutch and Gearbox: Pay attention to the clutch lifespan, particularly on manual models used for heavy towing. Automatic transmissions should shift smoothly without hesitation.
- 4x4 System (if applicable): Ensure the 4WD system engages correctly, particularly the low-range gearing and differential lock.
- Injection System: Listen for excessive injector noise or misfires, which could point to fuel system issues.
- Suspension: Check for worn bushes, tired leaf springs (especially if frequently overloaded), and leaky shock absorbers.
Running Costs for Businesses
- Typical Insurance Group: Insurance can vary significantly, but most Ranger models fall into groups 39-44 (Vans). Expect premiums to vary based on driver age, location, and modifications.
- Fuel Economy:
- 2.2L/3.2L: Expect 25-33 MPG (combined official figures, real-world lower).
- 2.0L EcoBlue: Officially 30-40 MPG (combined), improving on older units.
- Servicing: Main dealer servicing can be expensive (£300-£600+ for major services). Independent specialists offer good value. Service intervals are typically 1 year or 18,000-20,000 miles, whichever comes first.
- ULEZ/CAZ Compliance:
- Euro 6 (2016 onwards) Ranger models are ULEZ and CAZ compliant.
- Euro 5 (pre-2016 facelift) models are generally NOT compliant and will incur charges in affected zones.
