I have one of these. 1) The engine is NOT noisy at all, but uncannily quiet. It's the 2.0TDi and it does 50mpg and will hit 60 in under 10s thanks to 140 odd BHP and a 6 speed DSG box which changes like lightning.. 2) The build quality puts Citroens and Peugeots to shame. Incredibly well put together. In short, it's brilliant.
The utilitarian nature of these vehicles is not reflected in their price tag; some configurations price them beyond some SUV/MPVs. I'd happily take a practical, cheap, and cheerful van based family vehicle.
I don’t get the premise that it’s either suv, estate or van. They still build MPVs; I bought a new Touran as the Tiguan wasn’t practical or spacious enough ands it’s great.
Honestly that review is lacking. These vehicles are only bought for the space they provide and there was actually no proper review of the rear load area or 3rd row of seats with a demonstration of what its like back there . Watch a car wow review and learn how its done
I might misunderstand her but did she say that Caddys boot is smaller than the one of the Peugeot Rifter / the Citroen Berlingo? I'm asking because I doubt that this is true, at least concerning the 'standard' versions of the cars...
Hi, can we completly unmount all the seats on the maxi caddy ? I don't want to fold them but completly remove it for camping reason. Also I want to know if this is easy or if you need to unscrew something...
Yes, adults easily fit in the back row, although those with hip or back problems might struggle to bend over as they step in. It's practical and not as noisy as the review makes out. If you've got a family of six or seven it's the cheapest car I've found which can fit them in and their luggage for a week away. It's true that the seats don't fold flat and you have to take them out but on the other hand it's still got decent boot space with all the seats in place. Most other 7 seaters I looked at either cost a lot more or had no space with all 7 seats in use.
Interior not as modern as the Citroen or Peugeot??? You must br having a laugh. The caddy is the mercedes under the hiroof estates. No one comes close to its interior look, ergonomics and quality of materials used. Believe me, I've seen most of them since I am considering buying one
I think the all round best vehicle in this class is the Tourneo Connect, but I do wish they would stop saying in these videos but it's van like qualities show up, you can't make a Rolls Royce our of a go cart and we except that when we buy these instead of the car based MPV like C Max.
You need someone a little taller to practically set inside, this presentation was done only for the benefits of vw company , hiring people to get a presentation ready for consumers means better sales , but in this one it's not really showing many points like the back seat how flexible the seats can be , what's the reason for this type of a awkward shap , cost of running , warranty and much more , in Australian vw are over priced , and I know the market is not as great for vw comparing to Toyota , if any one thinks vw gives me problem I shouldn't buy it
Comes standard with interior noise that make Kia jealous. Go for the larger Caravelle instead. Yes I’m the owner of one VW Caravelle VR6 (204 PS). Perfect transporter for up to 8, cargo room for plenty of long (200cm+) items.
Stop saying Esh-u-vee!!!! Hurts my ears every time.... It is like Carbyer specifically put her in any review where that term is mentioned... Stop it, just stop it.
VW, want to make money? Then why don't you sell these vehicles in the US and Canada. PS: that issue about the rear seats, hey, Mercedes sells a minivan and you can't remove the rear seat! At least this one can.
moaning about the noise from the aircon at full blast.....what next, moaning about a alarm being loud..... rear leg room, didn't seem any different to many large estates / mpv's so carn't knock it at that. the lack of flat load floor with the seats is just a complete miss step here poor from VW again.
Great news, at 14k euro you can have Dacia Dokker Stepway, with: AC, electric windows, heated seats, cruise control, sat nav, rear view camera, colour selection...
I disagree. Here in Portugal the Caddy is offered also in Confortline and Highline specs. I have a 2019 Highline 2.0 TDI. With leather and Alcantara seat, heated seats, dual zone ac, Adaptive cruse control, bixenon light etc... I tried the new Rifter but even with the best spec available the interior lacks the feel of the Highline caddy.
a SUV has much more comfort, features, is much calmer, better suspension and better design... the caddy is a working horse nothin more, and the nav is way too low...
copyrat you have stopped taking your meds again I can tell, chill out and I’m sure your carer will notice soon and wheel you back into the ‘sunny room’ good day! 👍

When the back seats are out,can you get a bike in the back? Many thanks

Caddy's and Golfs are all a family needs really reliable

how about the safety?
I really like that cup holder, it's a genius piece of design 👍

All 2nd and 3rd row seats can be removed. No screws but they are a bit heavy.
Who buys a van for the dashboard plastic's? And you said the same in the Berlingo review
Does the third raw suitable for adults?
Yes, adults easily fit in the back row, although those with hip or back problems might struggle to bend over as they step in.

If your contemplating a Peugeot or citreon over this vw you must be mad!
And reliability, French engines just can't handle the inevitable high mileage/kms.
How much the vw caddy? By the way , where’s the spare tire?

How do you the last bank out of this car?
Expensive. Worth every penny.

Does it have a spare wheel?
yes
Idk if its like that on all caddys, but the rear suspension on mine is murderously bad
what if you get a popped tire ? what then ?
use the spare wheel.
I wish this was available in the USA.
I like the Caddy 2.0 TDI.
Would be nice to see Ginny review the rifter
k geary yes it would be lol

What are these eschuwees you speak of?
I'm disappointed, I wish that she would've show us the 3rd row seats how big they are, instead just some pictures, awful
I really only watch for Ginny, she's lovely! 😃
Steve Thorpe how sad.

that's creepy...imagine if you were ginny. would you be happy? no. treat people respectfully please
@@cosmon_ ALLAHU AKBAR. greetings from turkey. ERDOGAAAN
Steve Thorpe Me too.
ONE cupholder for all the back? That’ll cause issues with the kids.
You keep talking about the Rifter but I can't see that you have reviewed that?
The Peugeot Rifter and Ford Grand Tourneo Connect are much more modern, avoid the Caddy
Are they are reliable as a vs engine?
@@RT-ey4wy No. The Caddy wipes the floor with both of them.
Drive it for 100k miles then compare it to the rifter and Berlingo...... Oh that's right both of those would have blown up before then!
favorite family car 🌸🌸
That shelf
Is this big enough to quit my job, travel the world and live in?
Joe No, get back to work Joe.

Great Video Review. I prefer the New Peugeot Rifter as I like the design and styling more
Amazing car 👌 wish I do have car like this one
looks like a hearse driving down the road

I have one of these 2014 one one the noseiest most uncomfortable van iv ever owned hate it so much all the comfort of a weelie bin

If you want to fit an isofix seat with a leg you can't with that underfloor storage!
Ўзбекистонда 27-июльдан сотувга чиқариларкан,сергилиди салонда.Қанақекин бу мошина деб ютубга кирганла,шу ёзганимга битта лайкча босворила.Қайтиб кирсам 150-200-лайклани кўрарман диган ўйдаман.

rear leg room, didn't seem any different to many large estates / mpv's so carn't knock it at that.
the lack of flat load floor with the seats is just a complete miss step here
poor from VW again.
You can actually remove all the seats and have a nice flat floor with 3.2 m3 volume for this caddy maxi it should be more
Would be nice if they did an actual review of rifter...
@@mohamedms2472 bit of a faff really.....should fold into the floor for neat storage in this day and age
@@Apex180 totally agree, this actual caddy is from 2004, it share the P36 platform from VW which is the same as golf mk 5
She has being payed to downgrade the caddy!!
Max Wall
The beautiful jinny
My mate got one of these and have to say I'm very disappointed with driver position and amount of space for driver.☹
One word id use the describe this: LOL
I own this except a 2011 version. ITS A CRAP TERRIBLE CAR LOL
I prefer the Citroen Berlingo
Fair point

love van
Nice review!
Not nice car though
VW dieselgate
Just get a caddy maxi and forget the seats in the back. You can't sleep in a Berlingo either.
Still looks the same
Since 2004
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
This is nowhere near as good as the new Citroen/Peugeot offerings a poor choice for a review.
I disagree.

Mine is very similar to this one
ruclips.net/video/s8yQoOxW-d4/видео.html
The whole vehicle is FUGLY, lack of safety tech is always a major drawback and a reason alone I wouldn't buy it. Safety is my No.1 priority.
MaZEEZaM you can buy a cayenne Porsche for your safety...
Carwow is so much better
Not any more. They streaching every review to 15min and it's become boring to watch.
@@zuti071 Omg she is so boring! Glad Matt keeps her away from Carwow!
A mule.

Peugeot and Citroen are way better cars than this..
they are significantly smaller than the LWB version of the Caddy
ALLAHU AKBAR. greetings from turkey. ERDOGAAAAAN.

Who drives cars that look like shoe boxes? Who wants a car without power or luxury or history? 🤔
An expedient person. Is that the right answer to your question Jan ? ;)
VW is overprized crap buy a Berlingo better car for much less money!
Will someone teach her on how to pronounce SUV properly please?
here we go again: Esh U Vee, Esh U Vee, but now she added some ugly shoes to the picture.

Over rated over priced for the VW fan boys your overpaying for the VW coool tax 😞😖

Nice driver, ugly car.
