2018 Vauxhall Zafira 1.4L Petrol · DP67 DBZ

The vehicle presents a strong roadworthiness profile with a consistently stable maintenance trend following an early failure. The most recent test conducted in May 2025 at 36,575 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the car currently operates to a high standard of repair. This follows a streak of three clean passes since late 2022, suggesting that previous mechanical issues were addressed and the vehicle has since been maintained without recurring faults. The mileage pattern is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,500 miles per year. Data shows a significant period of low usage between November 2022 and June 2023, where the car covered only 1,380 miles. Since the May 2024 test at 24,752 miles, the vehicle has covered nearly 12,000 miles. While this low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, the long intervals between tests can sometimes lead to dry seal degradation or brake corrosion if the vehicle sits stationary. Despite the clean recent history, a buyer must inspect for signs of age associated with low-mileage standing. Specifically, check the brake discs for pitting and the tyres for sidewall cracking, as rubber ages regardless of tread depth. The failure in October 2022 at 15,734 miles remains an outlier in an otherwise perfect record; while the subsequent passes show the issue was resolved, a physical inspection of the chassis is advisable to ensure no lingering structural corrosion has developed during the periods of light use.
