2016 Vauxhall Zafira 2.0L Diesel · CV16 ACF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 9 May 2025 resulted in a pass at 69,554 miles with no defects recorded. While the car failed its tests on 1 May 2025 and 9 May 2023, the records do not specify the reasons for these failures, suggesting the faults were rectified promptly to achieve a pass on the same or following day. The mileage pattern is consistent with the age of the vehicle. It has covered approximately 6,955 miles per year over a decade. A notable increase in usage occurred between 10 April 2024 and 9 May 2025, where the odometer rose from 51,772 to 69,554 miles. This indicates a period of higher intensity use over the last thirteen months compared to the previous years. The absence of recorded advisories across multiple years is unusual for a ten year old Zafira. A buyer should physically inspect the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs for wear, as these components typically degrade regardless of a clean MOT sheet. Particular attention should be paid to the underbody and sills for signs of corrosion, which can sometimes be overlooked if the vehicle has been kept in a dry environment. Check the service history for oil changes and timing belt replacement. The MOT record confirms the car meets minimum legal standards, but it does not prove a comprehensive preventative maintenance schedule. Verify that the tyres have even wear patterns to ensure the wheel alignment remains correct after the recent increase in annual mileage.
