2017 Vauxhall Zafira 1.4L Petrol · CU17 XHA

The Vauxhall Zafira presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 6 May 2025 at 48,346 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, following a same-day failure that listed no defects, an administrative anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Prior tests in April 2024 at 36,934 miles, September 2023 at 36,344 miles, and December 2022 at 30,927 miles all passed clean. The vehicle shows no recurring advisories or escalating wear across the five-year record. Recorded mileage sits at 48,346 against a 2017 build, averaging roughly 5,372 miles per year. The gap between the December 2022 test at 30,927 miles and the September 2023 test at 36,344 miles shows light annual use of about 5,400 miles. A larger jump appears between September 2023 and April 2024, adding only 590 miles in seven months, then 11,412 miles by May 2025. This pattern suggests the car stood idle for stretches, then covered moderate distance before sale. Low mileage and a clean sheet give no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred suspension work. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the low-use history, as standing vehicles suffer perished rubbers and corroded calipers unseen in a pass result. Check underneath for structural rust on sills and subframes, and confirm exhaust emissions remain within limits under load. The absence of advisories means no specific fault trend demands attention, but verify the May 2025 failure was a clerical error and not a suppressed defect.
