Used VW Caddy For Sale
The first VW Caddy was based on the Volkswagen Golf Mk1 and released for sale in 1979 in North America but it was known as the VW Rabbit. Once the car came to South Africa and Europe in 1982, the Caddy was born and quickly became a household name. Unlike the current generation VW Caddy for sale as a people carrier and LCV, the first generation was only available as a pickup (bakkie).
In 2010 and 2015, the Caddy received extensive visual and feature upgrades which added further impetus to the already impressive offering. With either a 1.6-litre petrol or the outstanding 2.0-litre TDI engine, the Caddy delivers great performance across the board in urban settings or the open road. It has seating for up to 7 people and ample room for luggage or sporting equipment which makes the VW Caddy the ideal car for families or businesses needing an affordable staff transporter or private taxi owners.
If you’re looking for a VW Caddy for sale, you won’t be disappointed as it is one of the most well-regarded LCVs ever built by the German automaker. Not only is it reliable, safe, easy and cost-effective to maintain but it is also one of the most versatile vehicles in Volkswagen’s model lineup.
Used VW Caravelle For Sale
Families or business owners looking for a stylish, modern and spacious people carrier (or goods transporter), a used VW Caravelle for sale at Group1 is more than a luxurious ride; it offers some of the very best safety and comfort features ever built into a VW. This versatile all-rounder has earned its reputation by offering South Africans a multi-purpose vehicle that is spacious, comfortable, safe and a joy to drive.
The T6 Caravelle Highline has a 132 kW Bi-Turbo TDI engine and delivers on the VW promise of quality, performance and reliability. They’ve replaced the old hydraulic power steering system with an electro-mechanical setup that enabled the addition of several advanced driver assistance features while it also improves fuel economy, according to Volkswagen.
The Highline Caravelle is 20 millimetres lower which means Highline models are more stable around corners while still allowing plenty of clearance. While there would usually be many added extras that push a base price, the Caravelle Highline comes standard with many features such as Multi-function steering wheel controls, onboard computer, USB port, airbags, ISOFIX child seat mountings, remote central locking, ABS and cruise control among others.
It has a spacious seven-seat layout with the ability to adjust the middle seats to face the rear seats, which also makes room for a pop-up and fold-out table. Need even more space? The rear seat can easily be removed without using any tools. With an 80-litre tank and a claimed average fuel economy of 8.8./100 km, the VW Caravelle for sale can go the distance in luxury and style.
Whether you buy a new or used VW Caravelle, you can safely embark on any journey as this people carrier checks all the boxes. It is ideal for weekend getaways and camping trips or to use as a people transporter for schools, restaurants or any other organisation that needs a safe and reliable people carrier.
Used VW Kombi For Sale
A slightly cheaper family vehicle alternative is the ever-popular VW Kombi. As with the Caravelle, it offers plenty of room and loads of extras with the biggest difference being under the bonnet. Unlike the regular VW Kombi 2.0 TDI Trendline models that are available with either a 75 kW turbo-diesel engine in manual form or a 103 kW DSG, the Trendline Plus gets the more powerful, economical BiTDI twin-turbo-diesel.
Previously only available in the top-of-the-range Comfortline, this means the T6 Kombi Trendline produces 132 kW and 400 Nm of torque while mated to a seven-speed DSG dual-clutch gearbox for impressive performance and an amazingly comfortable driving experience.
Over and above the features from the Trendline, the Trendline Plus gets a few more including a six-speaker touchscreen audio system with AppConnect and reverse camera, multi-function steering wheel, cruise control, 17-inch alloy wheels and LED headlights. Both the used VW Kombi for sale and the VW Caravelle can offer a family or tradesmen everything they would need from a bigger, more expensive transporter.
