Our Verdict
A solid recommendation for those seeking a relatively modern diesel van. The vehicle has a clean MOT record with no recorded defects over the last three years.
When inspecting this 1.9L diesel Caddy, focus on verifying the service history to supplement the clean MOT record. While the MOTs show no defects, they do not confirm regular oil changes or scheduled maintenance, which are vital for the longevity of the 1968cc engine.
Negotiate based on the mileage; at 62,006 miles, it is a working vehicle. Check the condition of the van liner and load area, as these are often subject to wear in commercial vehicles, even if the mechanical MOT results are clear.
As a 2.0L diesel, fuel economy will depend heavily on load weight and driving style, but these models are generally efficient for commercial use. Tax bands and insurance groups will vary based on the specific trim level, which is not specified here.
Typical maintenance for a vehicle of this age and mileage will involve routine servicing, brake inspections, and potentially tyre replacements. Expect annual running costs to reflect the needs of a diesel utility vehicle.
Since the recent MOT history (2023-2025) shows no recorded defects, there are no specific failure patterns to warn against for this particular unit. However, you should perform a physical inspection of the suspension components and braking system, as these are common areas of wear in vans.
Pay close attention to the diesel exhaust system and any potential leaks around the engine bay. Even though the 2025 MOT passed with no defects at 62,006 miles, a visual check for fluid leaks is always prudent when buying a used diesel vehicle.
This 2020 Volkswagen Caddy, finished in red, has covered 62,006 miles since its first registration in October 2020. The MOT history shows three consecutive passes in 2023, 2024, and 2025, with no defects or failures reported during these inspections. Given its age and mileage, it appears to be a consistent performer in terms of meeting minimum UK roadworthiness standards.
No aggregate reliability data is currently available for this specific Volkswagen Caddy model to provide a statistical comparison.
