2011 Volkswagen Caddy 1.6L Diesel · BJ61 CLN

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear trend toward improving maintenance standards. The most recent inspection conducted on 15 December 2025 at 94,566 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the vehicle currently meets all minimum safety requirements. This follows a period of clean passes in late 2024 and 2025, suggesting that the current owner is addressing minor issues before they escalate into mechanical failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-annual-use profile, averaging approximately 6,300 miles per year. Between September 2024 and December 2025, the vehicle covered 1,392 miles, moving from 93,174 to 94,566. This steady accumulation suggests regular use, which is often beneficial for seals and mechanical components compared to long periods of standing. The brief failure in September 2024 for low headlamp aim was a minor adjustment issue that was rectified immediately, showing no sign of deeper underlying electrical neglect. A buyer should pay close attention to the oil leak noted during the September 2023 test at 91,392 miles. While the subsequent tests passed without further comment, a physical inspection is required to ensure the leak was properly sealed and does not represent a slow seep that could require monitoring. Given the age of the Caddy, a thorough check should also be performed on structural corrosion on the sills and rear suspension mounting, as these are common points of failure on this model that often do not appear on MOT records until they become critical.
