2010 Volkswagen Caddy 2.0L Diesel · GU10 NBZ

The 2025‑01‑03 MOT at 121,445 miles produced a pass, yet the record shows a pattern of recurring faults rather than improvement, indicating that maintenance has not resolved underlying issues. Mileage has accelerated markedly since 2023, climbing from 104,148 miles on 26 January 2023 to 121,445 miles on 3 January 2025, an increase of roughly 17,300 miles over two years or about 8,650 miles per year, well above the typical 7,590 miles per year for a 16‑year‑old vehicle. Earlier gaps between tests, such as the jump from 93,532 miles in 2022 to 104,148 miles in 2023, further illustrate rapid usage. A buyer should therefore inspect the front suspension arm pins and bushes for excessive wear, examine the rear shock absorbers for casing damage, and verify that the front brake discs are not excessively pitted while confirming the brake pipes are free of corrosion and mud ingress. Additional focus on the persistent oil leak, the condition of the front oil level, the functionality of all registration plate and lamp units, and the integrity of the sliding door handle and tyre sidewalls will reveal whether the vehicle can be relied upon for continued use.
