2013 Volkswagen Caddy 2.0L Diesel · DN62 EJC

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available data. The most recent test on 1 August 2024 at 151,320 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the car failed its tests on 25 July 2024 and 3 April 2023, the lack of recorded defects in the history suggests these failures were likely due to administrative issues or minor faults rectified immediately. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the vehicle's age. It covered 17,887 miles between January 2022 and April 2023, followed by a significant increase of 17,907 miles by April 2023. The usage slowed considerably between April 2023 and August 2024, with only 17,907 miles added over sixteen months. This average of roughly 11,640 miles per year indicates a typical duty cycle for a commercial vehicle of this vintage. The MOT record is unusually clean, showing no advisories for suspension bushes, brake discs, or corrosion across several years. This lack of data is atypical for a thirteen year old Caddy with 151,320 miles. A buyer should physically inspect the chassis and sills for structural rust and check the condition of the coil springs and shock absorbers, as these components typically degrade at this mileage regardless of a clean test sheet. Verify the service history to ensure oil changes and timing belt replacements align with manufacturer intervals. The absence of recorded brake or tyre advisories suggests either a meticulous maintenance regime or a tester who was less thorough. Check for binding calipers and ensure the exhaust system is secure and free from leaks during a cold start.
