2016 Vauxhall Zafira 1.4L Petrol · DY65 ABN

The vehicle appears to be in a stable roadworthiness condition based on the most recent MOT history. The December 2024 test at 167,951 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, indicating that the previous failures have been addressed. The maintenance trend shows a pattern of resolving minor issues, as evidenced by the transition from failures to passes during the 2022 and 2023 testing cycles. The mileage accumulation is high for a 2016 model, averaging approximately 16,795 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage, with the mileage increasing by 2,010 miles between the December 2023 and December 2024 tests. This steady progression suggests the vehicle is used regularly for commuting or long-distance travel rather than sitting idle. While the high mileage increases the wear on mechanical components, the absence of recent advisories suggests the previous owner has kept up with essential maintenance. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension system and chassis. Given the high mileage and the previous failures recorded in December 2022 and December 2023, it is essential to check for excessive play in the suspension bushes, worn coil springs, or any signs of structural corrosion on the underbody. The tester flagged failures in previous years, so verifying that these specific faults were rectified with quality parts is necessary. Detailed attention should also be paid to the braking system and drivetrain. While the most recent record is clean, the high annual mileage places significant stress on brake discs, pads, and various rubber bushings. Inspect the vehicle for any signs of oil leaks from the engine or gearbox and check the condition of the exhaust system for corrosion or mounting issues. The consistent mileage suggests the vehicle has not been neglected, but the high usage demands a rigorous check of all consumable wear items.
