Volkswagen Caddy selling questions

Which Caddy models do you buy?

All of them: the Caddy Mk2, Caddy Mk3, Caddy Mk4 and the current Caddy 5, in short wheelbase or Maxi form, as panel vans, Kombis, Life people carriers and campers.

My Caddy has a very high mileage. Do you still want it?

Yes. Most Caddys are work vans and big miles are normal. Tell us the mileage and what has been done to it.

It has a gearbox or clutch problem. Can I still sell?

Yes. DSG faults, a slipping clutch or a noisy flywheel are all fine. Describe the symptoms and we will price it as it stands.

Do I have to take the racking out?

No. Leave racking, bulkheads and ply lining in place and tell us what is fitted.

Do you buy Caddys from businesses?

Yes. Sole traders and companies sell to us all the time. We just need the V5C and the person signing to have authority to sell.

It failed its MOT. Is it worth anything?

Yes. We buy MOT failures and non-runners and collect them free on a recovery truck.

How do I get paid?

By bank transfer while our driver is with you, or in cash if you prefer. The keys stay with you until you are paid.

Can I see a price online?

No. Every Caddy is valued on its own. Send the details for a free, no-obligation offer.

Will you buy another make of small van?

Yes. Send us the details of any small van and we will make an offer.
