2014 Vauxhall Zafira 1.4L Petrol · FH14 TMY

The Vauxhall Zafira presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 12 March 2026 at 55,328 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior pass on 7 March 2025 at 51,234 miles also showed a clean sheet. The vehicle has cleared every successful examination without advisories, indicating no escalating mechanical concerns across the available history. Recorded mileage sits low for a 2014 registration at roughly 4,611 miles per year. The test on 24 June 2022 captured 39,007 miles, rising to 46,257 miles by 26 June 2023, then 51,234 miles by March 2025 and 55,328 miles by March 2026. The gap between the June 2023 and March 2025 entries spans roughly 21 months yet adds only about 4,977 miles, implying the car spent long periods stationary. Low annual use paired with standing time often masks wear on flexible components such as suspension bushes and brake calipers even when test results stay clean. The June 2023 record shows a failed test immediately followed by a pass on the same day at identical mileage of 46,257, with no defects listed against either outcome. DVSA systems occasionally log such duplicate entries where a rectification is confirmed within the appointment, so the buyer should verify the failure reason through the full advisory detail at point of sale. No corrosion, exhaust emission breaches, or structural integrity issues appear anywhere in the chain. A purchaser should still commission an independent inspection of the underbody, coil springs, and brake discs given the car's age and standing periods. The clean MOT trail does not exempt a 12-year-old Zafira from age-related degradation invisible to the annual test. Confirm the condition of tyres and wiper blades, though these consumables carry no historical flags.
