2015 Vauxhall Zafira 1.4L Petrol · C1 CGJ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend in recent years. The most recent test on 4 February 2026 at 38,952 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of passing tests without advisories since early 2024, suggesting that any previous maintenance requirements have been addressed and the vehicle is currently being kept to a satisfactory standard. The mileage accumulation is notably low for an 11-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,541 miles per year. The records show a steady, incremental increase in distance between tests, such as the 2,210 miles covered between the January 2025 and February 2026 inspections. While low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, the infrequent use can sometimes lead to issues with seals or battery health, though the MOT data does not currently indicate any such mechanical failures. A review of the historical data highlights a period of neglected consumable maintenance around February 2022. During that test at 28,872 miles, the tester flagged significant wear across all four brake pads and all four tyres, with several tyres being worn close to the legal limit. This suggests a lapse in basic upkeep by a previous owner. However, the subsequent clean passes in 2023, 2024, and 2025 indicate that these consumables were replaced and the vehicle has since returned to a regular maintenance schedule. A prospective buyer should perform a physical inspection of the braking system and tyre condition to ensure the quality of parts fitted after the 2022 failures. Although the 31 January 2024 failure for insufficient windscreen washer fluid was a minor non-mechanical issue, it is worth verifying that all fluid-related components and wiper systems function correctly. Given the low annual mileage, checking for any signs of fluid leaks or perished rubber components would be a prudent step during a physical inspection.
