2014 Vauxhall Zafira 2.0L Diesel · FG64 RTZ

The Vauxhall Zafira presents as roadworthy following the July 2025 test cycle, with the most recent pass dated 2025-07-07 at 112,765 miles showing no defects recorded. The maintenance trend reads as stable across the five-year MOT span, with no advisories or mechanical faults flagged at any stage. A buyer should note the July 2025 sequence saw a fail on 2025-07-03 at 112,555 miles with no defects listed, followed by a clean pass four days later at 112,765 miles. This pattern suggests an administrative or presentation issue at the first test rather than a genuine mechanical defect, though the lack of recorded reason for failure warrants direct clarification from the selling party. Annual mileage sits at a typical level for a 2014 vehicle, averaging roughly 9,400 miles per year against the 112,765 miles now recorded. The records show steady accumulation: 74,487 miles in July 2022, 83,601 in July 2023, 98,298 in July 2024, and 112,555 to 112,765 across the two July 2025 entries. No gap exceeds thirteen months and no year shows abnormal jump in distance covered. The clean sweep of passes with zero advisories across this period implies the previous keeper maintained basic test compliance, though the absence of any flagged wear items is unusual for a car of this age and mileage and may reflect minimal scrutiny rather than genuinely unworn components. Given the sparse MOT data, a buyer should commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc condition, as these wear items are rarely absent on a twelve-year-old Zafira but were never noted by testers. Structural corrosion around sills and subframes should be physically checked despite no advisories appearing. The unexplained July 2025 fail with no defects recorded demands documentary evidence from the vendor before purchase.
