2008 Vauxhall Zafira 1.9L Diesel · FM57 WSO

This 2008 Vauxhall Zafira presents a stable yet limited roadworthiness outlook, anchored by a clear test result on November 12, 2021, at 194,362 miles. The maintenance trend reflects a vehicle that successfully cleared a retest just eleven days after an initial failure on November 1, 2021. Because the records provided end in late 2021 and lack subsequent data leading up to August 2026, the current statutory roadworthiness is completely unverified, meaning the vehicle may have spent years off the road. Accumulating 194,362 miles over roughly eighteen years yields an average of approximately 10,798 miles annually, aligning closely with typical UK driving habits for a diesel or petrol family MPV of this era. However, the record is exceptionally sparse, containing only two entries from late 2021 and showing a total absence of routine advisories. This data vacuum prevents any detailed tracking of component degradation over time, leaving prior servicing habits largely obscured. An in-person inspection must focus heavily on the high-mileage drivetrain, steering joints, and suspension components which naturally endure heavy fatigue at this mileage point. The buyer should thoroughly check the structural integrity of the chassis and sills for corrosion, and verify the condition of the brake discs, pads, and exhaust system. Given the extended gap in the MOT history since late 2021, a comprehensive mechanical overhaul and a fresh test are essential before relying on this vehicle for daily use.
