A proper old-school workhorse; a rare survivor from the era when small pickups were simple, tough and built to last.
VW Caddy’s have real retro appeal and are becoming increasingly hard to find in honest condition.
Perfect as a usable classic, promotional vehicle, weekend runabout or light-duty work truck.
With simple and reliable mechanics and loads of character it’s no wonder that values are steadily rising as clean examples dry up and they always draw attention from VW enthusiasts and classic car fans alike.
