AI verdict CAUTION 75/100

AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2007 Volkswagen has 19 MOT tests on record with a 95% pass rate and 13,885 miles. However, a recurring pattern of brake disc advisories and a history of timing chain/water pump issues for the Cayenne/Q7 model require careful inspection.

The vehicle shows exceptionally low annual usage, averaging only 3,351 miles per year, with a notable drop in usage from 2019 onwards, suggesting minimal recent use.

Things to check

  • Recurring brake disc advisories (Jul 2022, Jul 2023) indicate ongoing wear despite low mileage.
  • The 2007 Volkswagen Caddy shares the same 2.9/3.0 V6 engine as the Cayenne/Q7, which has a history of timing chain and water pump failures.
  • The car has been Untaxed since the last MOT, which may indicate a period of non-use or administrative oversight.

Working in its favour

  • No MOT failures recorded across 8 tests, demonstrating a generally well-maintained vehicle.
  • Consistent low annual mileage (3,351 mi/yr) suggests light use and potential for longevity.
  • Recent MOT pass (Jul 2025) with a long expiry date (2026-07-28) provides immediate peace of mind.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a well-designed and safe vehicle.
