2012 Volkswagen Caddy 1.7L Diesel · DA12 XCW

The 2012 Volkswagen Caddy presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 4 February 2026 at 164,282 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results across the available history. Annual mileage sits at roughly 11,700 miles, typical for a 14-year-old light commercial vehicle. The records show steady accumulation: 128,102 miles at the October 2021 test, rising through 143,254 in January 2023, 152,093 in January 2024, 159,318 in January 2025, and 164,282 in February 2026. A gap exists between October 2021 and January 2023 where no test appears, but the mileage progression suggests continuous use rather than prolonged standing. The DVSA data is sparse on faults, listing no advisories or failures at any point. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and 164,282 miles. The clean MOT record means the tester identified no corrosion or structural integrity concerns, yet high-mileage Caddy vans commonly develop wear in rear trailing arm mounts and sliding door tracks unseen during a brief test. Verify the service history matches the recorded mileages and confirm cambelt intervals were observed. No recurring mechanical faults emerge from the record, so previous owners appear to have maintained basic statutory compliance, but the absence of advisories offers no insight into consumable life remaining on tyres or wiper blades.
