2013 Volkswagen Caddy 1.6L Diesel · AE63 WRT

The 2013 Volkswagen Caddy presents a stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent test on 31 October 2025 at 147,183 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and this follows three consecutive clean passes from 2022 to 2024. The maintenance trend is steady with no worsening faults or recurring advisories across the available history. Annual mileage sits at a typical level for a thirteen-year-old van. The record shows 119,654 miles on 28 October 2022, rising to 129,093 by 20 October 2023, then 133,057 on 24 October 2024, and 147,183 on 31 October 2025. That equates to roughly 9,000 to 14,000 miles per year, consistent with light commercial use. The DVSA entry also logs a failed test on 28 October 2022 at 119,654 miles with no defects recorded, suggesting an administrative or data anomaly rather than a mechanical fault, since the same-day retest passed. Given the clean test sequence, no specific suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or corrosion issues were flagged for this vehicle. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity, underbody rust, and consumable wear such as tyres and wiper blades, as MOT passes do not measure remaining tread depth margins or non-failure-level deterioration. The absence of advisories across four years implies the previous keeper addressed wear before each test. Verify service history to confirm routine oil changes and cambelt intervals on a high-mileage diesel, as the MOT record alone does not capture drivetrain maintenance.
