    CarExpert's Take

    Max Davies
    Marketplace Journalist
    Max Davies drove this car and these were their findings:
    Hits
    • Buttery V6 diesel
    • Robust tech inside and out
    • Still indisputably the non-PHEV ute benchmark
    Misses
    • There are more logical Rangers at better prices
    • Generally expensive compared to rivals
    • No tonneau cover as standard
