2018 Volkswagen Caddy 2.0L Diesel · ND18 AEJ

The 2018 Volkswagen Caddy presents a stable roadworthiness profile, with no defects recorded in its most recent MOT on 2025-10-25 at 91,061 miles. The vehicle has maintained consistent compliance since 2022, with all tests from 2022-08-01 to 2025-10-25 passing without issues. A notable anomaly exists in the 2023-10-31 entry, which was recorded as a failure but listed no defects, potentially indicating a data error. Despite this, the absence of recurring mechanical or structural concerns in subsequent tests suggests the car has been well-maintained. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging 11,383 miles annually. The 2022-08-01 test at 65,597 miles showed 8,183 miles added over 14 months, followed by 9,742 miles between 2023-10-31 and 2024-10-30, and 7,539 miles by 2025-10-25. These figures reflect steady, predictable usage without abrupt spikes that might signal excessive wear. The lack of consumable-related failures (e.g., tyres, wipers) in the record implies routine maintenance was prioritized. A buyer should verify the condition of the suspension and braking systems, as these components often degrade with age and mileage. While no specific faults were noted, the 2023-10-31 failure entry—despite no recorded defects—warrants scrutiny of the vehicle’s structural integrity and exhaust emissions. Inspecting for corrosion, particularly in underbody areas, and testing brake functionality during a live assessment would provide clarity on long-term reliability. The MOT history does not indicate urgent risks, but the car’s age necessitates thorough mechanical evaluation.
