2013 Volkswagen Caravelle 2.0L Diesel · DK62 FZD

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 10 February 2026 at 94,183 miles with no defects recorded. This clean result follows a stable maintenance pattern, as the February 2024 test at 83,333 miles passed despite two minor advisories regarding front brake discs and binding calipers. Neither issue escalated into a failure, indicating the previous owner addressed wear before it became critical. The twelve-year history shows consistent compliance with MOT requirements, suggesting a car that has been kept in reasonable condition throughout its life. The recorded mileage of 94,183 miles over thirteen years averages roughly 7,245 miles annually, which is typical for a Volkswagen Caravelle of this age. There are no periods of rapid mileage accumulation or long gaps between tests that suggest the car was parked for extended periods or driven excessively. Testing occurred annually from 2015 through 2026, providing a clear chronological picture of usage. The steady mileage suggests a working vehicle rather than one sitting idle, which aligns with the consumable wear observed on brake components. A buyer should inspect the front brake discs and rear coil springs in person. The MOT record flags worn, pitted brake discs at 75,981 miles and corroded rear coil springs at 79,134 miles. While neither failed the MOT at the time, corrosion on suspension springs can compromise ride quality and structural integrity if left unchecked. The binding brake advisory at 89,010 miles warrants a physical check to ensure calipers are not seizing. Given the recurring nature of these consumable faults, the buyer should verify that the current owner has replaced these items rather than relying solely on the passing MOT.
