2009 Volkswagen Caddy 2.0L Diesel · DX09 PVY

The 2009 Volkswagen Caddy demonstrates a sound roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trajectory. The DVSA examiner passed the vehicle on 14 November 2025 at 81,907 miles with no defects recorded. Five successive annual examinations from December 2021 through November 2025 each yielded a clean result. The record shows no recurring advisories or failures, indicating consistent compliance with statutory safety and emissions standards. Recorded mileage reveals low accumulation for a seventeen-year-old van. The odometer advanced from 66,554 miles at the 6 December 2021 test to 81,907 miles by 14 November 2025, a gain of 15,353 miles over four years equating to roughly 3,800 miles per annum. Such restrained use implies light duty or extended storage. The MOT history is sparse but unblemished, with test intervals never exceeding thirteen months and zero noted wear on consumables such as tyres or wiper blades. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of age-sensitive components that statutory tests may not flag until degraded. The examiner recorded no corrosion or structural integrity issues, yet a 2009 Caddy demands scrutiny of chassis rails, sills, and suspension mounting points for rust. Front lower suspension bushes and coil springs warrant tactile checks for perishing or fracture. Brake discs and calipers should be measured for latent scoring despite the absence of binding reports. Previous keepers appear to have maintained the van to a standard that cleared every examination without advisory. Low mileage paired with clean records suggests disciplined ownership, though verifying intervening service invoices remains prudent. The lack of recorded faults does not negate the need for a pre-purchase mechanical appraisal given the vehicle's elapsed time in service.
