2006 Vauxhall Zafira 1.6L Petrol · DE06 LPX

The Vauxhall Zafira passed its most recent MOT on 23 December 2021 at 111,340 miles with no defects recorded, leaving the maintenance trend neither worsening nor improving but simply static due to a single clean result. The vehicle has not been presented for test since that date, which is roughly four and a half years before today's date of 8 July 2026, so the current roadworthiness cannot be confirmed from the official record alone. The odometer shows 111,340 miles against a December 2006 build, an average of about 5,567 miles per year. This is low for a twenty-year-old family estate and suggests either light commuting use or prolonged periods off the road. The MOT history contains just one entry at that exact mileage, so we see no rapid accumulation or notable gaps between tests, only a lone clean pass with no advisories logged for tyres, brakes, suspension bushes, or corrosion. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection before purchase. Long stationary intervals at low mileage commonly degrade rubber components, seize brake calipers, and encourage structural rust on sills and subframes even when a past test showed nothing. The absence of recorded advisories in 2021 does not cover age-related wear that has developed during the untested interval since. Check the exhaust emissions, coil springs, and brake disc condition closely, and confirm the mileage is genuine given the single reading. The clean 2021 result is a reasonable baseline, but the four-year test gap means the Zafira now requires a fresh MOT and hands-on assessment to verify it remains roadworthy.
