2010 Volkswagen Caddy 1.9L Diesel · RO60 JCY

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on a consistent history of clean MOT results. The most recent test conducted in September 2023 at 164,864 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the vehicle met all minimum safety standards at that time. While a single failure occurred in October 2022, the vehicle was rectified and passed the very following day, suggesting a minor or consumable issue that was addressed immediately rather than a systemic mechanical failure or structural neglect. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 10,300 miles per year. Between October 2020 at 127,253 miles and September 2023 at 164,864 miles, the vehicle covered 37,611 miles. This steady accumulation suggests regular use which is often better for mechanical components than the seal degradation associated with long periods of standing. However, it has now been nearly three years since the last recorded test, meaning the current data is outdated and a fresh inspection is required to verify the state of the safety-critical components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on high-mileage wear areas common to the Volkswagen Caddy of this era. Given the 164,000-mile mark, a close examination of the suspension bushes, wish arms, and coil springs is necessary to check for play or fatigue. The chassis should also be inspected for corrosion on the sills and mounting points, as these areas are prone over sixteen years. Since the last MOT is long overdue, the state of the brake discs, calipers, and the integrity of the exhaust system must be verified manually to ensure no significant deterioration has occurred since the last recorded pass.
