2016 Vauxhall Zafira 1.6L Diesel · CU16 VUA

The Vauxhall Zafira presents as roadworthy on the most recent test, with a clean pass recorded on 17 October 2025 at 121,810 miles showing no defects. The maintenance trend across the supplied record reads as stable, with no recurring advisories or mechanical faults flagged in any entry. A single failure appears on 21 October 2024 at 92,493 miles, yet the tester logged no defects and the vehicle passed the following day at 92,495 miles, indicating an administrative or retest correction rather than a genuine fault. Mileage sits high for a 2016 model. The record shows 67,604 miles on 26 August 2021, then 71,190 miles by 23 October 2023, a low annual average of under 2,000 miles across that gap. Accumulation then rose sharply: 92,495 miles on 22 October 2024 and 121,810 miles by October 2025, equating to roughly 29,000 miles per year over that final period. Such a jump suggests the car moved from light use to heavy commuting or business mileage late in life. No suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emission issues appear in the history. The clean run of passes with zero advisories implies previous owners addressed consumables before each test. The October 2024 fail with no defects recorded warrants a check of the DVSA test station notes, but the immediate pass suggests no lasting concern. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody rust given the age and recent high-mileage phase. Verify brake caliper operation and tyre condition despite no advisories, as the 29,000-mile annual jump will have loaded wear items the MOT did not capture. The Zafira is mechanically sound on paper, but in-person checks on drivetrain and suspension remain prudent at 121,810 miles.
