2016 Vauxhall Zafira 1.4L Petrol · CV16 ABF

The Vauxhall Zafira presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent test on 6 February 2026 at 57,878 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. Prior examinations on 17 January 2025 and 3 February 2023 also cleared the vehicle without advisories. The upkeep pattern shows consistent compliance across the available five-year testing span. Mileage accumulation sits low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,800 miles per year against the recorded 57,878 miles. The odometer advanced from 43,073 miles at the February 2023 test to 48,870 miles by 19 January 2024, then to 53,646 miles in January 2025 and 57,878 miles by February 2026. No rapid accumulation or suspicious gaps appear; the sparse but clean history reflects light use, possibly with extended standing periods between annual tests. On 19 January 2024 the DVSA log shows both a fail and a pass at 48,870 miles, each with no defects listed. This duplicate outcome on a single day suggests an administrative re-test rather than a mechanical rejection, yet a buyer should confirm the V5C and DVSA record to rule out omitted fault codes. With no advisories across the record, previous owners appear to have addressed consumables before each examination. Despite the clean sheet, a 2016 Zafira at this age demands in-person checks of suspension bushes, front coil springs, and brake disc wear, as low mileage combined with standing invites corrosion on structural members and binding calipers. Inspect exhaust emissions for idle irregularities and verify underbody integrity for rust. The absence of recorded faults does not negate age-related degradation invisible to the test lane.
