2017 Volkswagen Caddy 2.0L Diesel · CV67 HDY

The 2017 Volkswagen Caddy presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 27 March 2026 at 88,378 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass dated 10 January 2025 at 87,502 miles confirms the vehicle entered its ninth year in sound condition. The history shows no advisories or mechanical faults across the examined period, indicating consistent upkeep rather than deferred repair. Recorded mileage sits at 88,378 against a nine-year lifespan, equating to roughly 9,820 miles per year and falling within typical use for this model. The odometer moved only 4,043 miles between the September 2023 test at 83,335 miles and the January 2025 test at 87,502 miles, then a mere 876 miles to the March 2026 pass. Such low annual accumulation suggests extended standing periods or light local duty, which can mask intermittent faults not captured in static testing. Two failed tests appear in the record, both on 3 January 2025 and 29 September 2023 at 87,502 and 83,335 miles respectively, yet the DVSA data lists no defects for either. The immediate re-tests on 10 January 2025 and 29 September 2023 passed clean, implying administrative or presentation issues at initial submission rather than mechanical non-compliance. A buyer should still verify the VIN and test documentation match, as zero-defect failures are irregular. Given the absence of flagged wear on brake discs, suspension bushes, coil springs, or corrosion, no specific component requires urgent scrutiny beyond standard pre-purchase checks. Inspect underbody structural integrity for rust, confirm tyre tread and sidewall condition after the low-mileage dormancy, and test for binding calipers following the limited recent use. The record itself offers no evidence of worsening mechanical risk.
