2018 Volkswagen Caddy 2.0L Diesel · NK18 CMX

The 2025-10-10 MOT at 30,535 miles passed with no defects, confirming that the Volkswagen Caddy remains roadworthy and that the maintenance record is stable, as all previous tests from 2022 through 2025 also showed zero failures. No defects were recorded in any of the five tests, indicating consistent upkeep and no recurring mechanical failures. The recorded mileage of 30,535 at 8 years of age averages just 3,817 miles per year, well below the typical usage for a 2018 model, suggesting light use or long periods of standing. The 2022 test at 12,004 miles to the 2023 test at 12,931 miles covered only 927 miles in a year, while the jump to 14,005 miles by October 2023 added 1,074 miles in six months, and the subsequent year to the 2025 test increased by 8,418 miles, showing a clear acceleration in usage over the last two years. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, verify that the rear brakes are not binding and that the brake discs display even wear, and examine the chassis and wheel arches for any structural rust or corrosion. The exhaust system should be checked for leaks or excessive smoke, and the structural integrity of the body panels should be assessed for hidden damage. Tyre tread depth and wiper blade condition are also advisable checks, as low mileage does not guarantee absence of wear. Overall, the vehicle presents a clean MOT history with no recorded defects, but the recent mileage surge warrants a thorough in‑person inspection of the mechanical components listed above to confirm that the low‑mileage trend has not masked underlying wear or neglect.
