2010 Volkswagen Caddy 2.0L Diesel · GD59 AAJ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, having achieved a clean pass across the last three annual inspections. Following an initial failure in May 2022, the Caddy has operated without any recorded defects or advisories. The most recent test on 21 May 2025 at 215,594 miles indicates that the owner has addressed previous issues and that the vehicle currently meets the minimum legal standards for UK road use. At 16 years old, the 2010 Caddy reflects high-mileage usage, averaging approximately 13,500 miles per year. The data shows a consistent usage pattern with roughly 7,000 to 8,000 miles covered between each annual test from 2022 through 2025. This regularity suggests the vehicle has been used consistently rather than sitting for long periods, which often helps prevent internal engine components from seizing. However, the cumulative mileage places significant stress on the drivetrain, suspension assembly, and structural integrity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components most susceptible to high-mileage wear. While the MOT record shows no current advisories, the high mileage necessitates a thorough check for worn suspension bushes, perished coil springs, and leaking shock absorbers. Given the vehicle's age and use, a close inspection for corrosion on the sills and wheel arches is essential, as structural rust is a common failure point for this generation. Additionally verify the brake system for thin discs or binding calipers, as the MOT does not capture the gradual thinning of these consumables until they reach a failure threshold.
