2012 Vauxhall Zafira 1.8L Petrol · AF62 XLE

The Vauxhall Zafira presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 11 March 2025 at 100,715 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results across the available history. No advisories or mechanical faults appear in any entry, indicating the vehicle has not required corrective work within the recorded period. Mileage progression sits within typical bounds for a 2012 registration. The record shows 86,528 miles on 18 March 2022, rising to 94,049 by 20 March 2023, 97,395 by 7 March 2024, and 100,715 by March 2025. Annual accumulation averages near 4,700 miles across these intervals, below the roughly 7,194 miles per year lifetime mean, suggesting lighter recent use. The dual entries on 18 March 2022 show a fail and pass on the same day at identical mileage with no defects listed, pointing to an administrative or procedural retest rather than a genuine mechanical defect. The absence of flagged items such as worn suspension bushes, corroded structure, or failing brake discs means no recurring fault pattern exists to track. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underside corrosion, coil spring condition, and brake caliper operation, as MOT passes at this age do not certify component life beyond the test date. The clean record implies prior owners kept basic statutory compliance but offers no evidence of proactive maintenance beyond minimum legal standard. Given the 100,715 mile distance from new and the vehicle's fourteen year age, in-person checks of exhaust emissions, tyre sidewall cracking, and steering joint play remain prudent before purchase. The history supports a verdict of acceptable roadworthiness with no deterioration trend, though sparse data limits insight into consumable replacement habits.
