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

This 2011 Volkswagen has 19 MOT tests on record with a 68% pass rate and 36,749 miles. The vehicle's high mileage and persistent safety-critical issues make it a high-risk purchase.

The mileage trajectory shows a consistent increase, but a critical anomaly: a 41,120-mile jump in the 12 months before Oct 2025, far exceeding the car's average annual usage.

Things to check

  • Oct 2025: Mileage anomaly of 41,120 miles in 12 months is extremely high and suspicious.
  • Oct 2025: Recent MOT pass (Oct 2025) still carries 4 ADVISORY items for critical wear.
  • Oct 2024: DANGEROUS defect for rear brake pads less than 1.5mm was a critical safety failure.
  • Oct 2024: MAJOR failure for offside front tyre with ply exposed, a recurring dangerous issue.

Working in its favour

  • Oct 2025: Current MOT is valid until October 2026, providing immediate peace of mind.
  • Jan 2011: Vehicle is relatively new for its age, suggesting modern safety features.
  • 2017 Euro NCAP rating: 5/5 stars indicates a high level of safety for its time.
  • 2011 Volkswagen Caddy: Known for its indestructible 2.5L engine and manual transmission durability.
