2007 Vauxhall Zafira 1.6L Petrol · AV07 DSE

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status based on the most recent de-registered data. The final MOT test conducted on 31 May 2023 at 124,602 miles passed with no defects or advisories, indicating that the car met all safety and environmental standards at that point in time. While the history shows previous failures in 2021 and 2022, the subsequent passes without recorded advisories suggest the owner was proactive in rectifying identified mechanical issues. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 19-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per annum. Between June 2021 and June 2022, the car covered 8,896 miles, representing a period of slightly higher use. However, there is a significant gap in the record between the 2023 test and the current date of June 2026. The vehicle has not undergone an official inspection for over three years, which raises concerns regarding the current state of rubber components, brake fluid, and corrosion, as long periods of standing often lead to degradation rather than uniform wear on drivetrain components. A buyer must focus their physical inspection on the chassis integrity and underbody. Given the age of this Zafira, structural rust on the sills and rear suspension mounting points is a common failure point for this model. Since the record shows failures in previous years, the buyer should specifically check suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of excessive play. The lack of recent MOT data also necessitates a thorough check for binding calipers or perished tyres that may have occurred during the three-year lapse in testing.
