2015 Volkswagen Caddy 1.6L Diesel · OU65 WUT

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a successful test on May 18, 2026, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive rather than proactive care. While it passed the latest test, the tester flagged all four tyres as being close to the legal limit with specific uneven wear patterns. This indicates that while the vehicle is mechanically capable of passing an MOT, the owner has deferred the replacement of consumable items, only addressing them once they approach or reach failure thresholds. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per year. The record shows steady usage, moving from 81,734 miles in January 2023 to 109,523 miles in May 2026. There are no significant gaps in the history that suggest long periods of inactivity or sudden spikes in mileage. This regular accumulation suggests the vehicle has been used for consistent commuting, which is generally beneficial for engine health and brake seals but leads to the expected degradation of rubber components and suspension bushings. A buyer must inspect the front suspension geometry closely, as the vehicle failed the test in May 2025 specifically due to excessively worn front suspension arm bushes on both sides. Although these were likely repaired thereafter, the 2026 report notes inner-edge wear on the front tyres, which suggests a persistent alignment issue or worn ball joints. The buyer should check for play in the steering components and verify that a wheel alignment was performed following any repairs. Given the state of the tyres in the most recent test, a full set of new rubber is likely required to ensure safety and prevent further premature wear.
