2017 VAUXHALL ZAFIRA1.4L Petrol

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate following a clean pass on 14 January 2026 at 78,361 miles. This recent result indicates a stable mechanical state, as the tester identified no defects or advisories during the inspection. The history shows a consistent pattern of compliance, with the most recent test confirming that the vehicle meets current roadworthiness standards. The recorded mileage of 78,361 over a nine-year period averages approximately 8,700 miles annually, which aligns with typical usage for a family-oriented vehicle. A notable gap appears between the December 2023 test at 56,201 miles and the April 2025 test at 73,580 miles, suggesting a period of increased usage or a delay in the testing cycle. The failure on 12 April 2025 at 73,580 miles remains an anomaly given the lack of recorded defects, which often implies a clerical error or a minor issue rectified immediately before the subsequent pass in May 2025. Because the MOT history is remarkably clean with no recurring advisories for suspension bushes, brake discs, or structural corrosion, the vehicle appears to have been maintained to a high standard. You should focus your physical inspection on the condition of the tyres and the operation of the electronic parking brake, as these components often see wear on this specific model that may not be captured in a standard test. Check the service history for evidence of timing belt replacements, as the MOT record does not account for internal engine maintenance or fluid changes essential for long-term reliability at this mileage.
