2006 Vauxhall Zafira 1.6L Petrol · CX56 PCZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, having passed its last five MOT tests without any failures. The most recent test in October 2021 at 128,813 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the mechanical and structural components met minimum standards at that time. However, because nearly five years have elapsed since the last inspection, the current state of roadworthiness remains unverified. The mileage pattern is consistent with a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 6,400 miles per year. Between October 2017 and October 2021, the car covered roughly 29,000 miles, showing a steady usage of about 7,250 miles annually. This low annual mileage suggests regular use rather than long periods of stagnation, which often leads to perished seals or seized components. The lack of recorded data since late 2021 suggests the vehicle may have been off the road or not undergone a mandatory test recently. A physical inspection should focus on the tyres and suspension components, as the 2018 and 2019 tests flagged issues with the nearside front tyre, including edge wear and a nail. While these are consumable items, the age of the vehicle means rubber bushes in the suspension are likely prone to cracking regardless of mileage. The buyer must also inspect for structural corrosion on the sills and rear brake lines, as these are common failure points for this Zafira generation that are not always captured in early MOT advisories.
