Our Verdict
A recommended purchase for those seeking
The primary point for negotiation or inquiry is the oil leak noted in the 2024 and 2025 MOT tests. You should ask for service records to confirm if a repair was carried out or if the leak was simply monitored, as it disappeared from the August 2026 record.
Additionally, verify when the brakes were last replaced. The 2022 and 2023 records showed worn discs and pads on both the front and rear axles. Evidence of a full brake overhaul in the service history would be a positive sign for a vehicle of this age and mileage.
The 1.8L petrol engine provides a balance of power and utility, though fuel economy will be typical for a larger petrol MPV from 2014. Road tax will fall into a standard bracket for its age and emissions, while insurance groups for the Zafira generally remain accessible for family buyers.
Maintenance costs are typically moderate, though you should budget for the replacement of wear-and-tear items. Based on the engine size and vehicle type, expect typical costs for tyres, fluids, and periodic servicing.
Check the engine bay and underside for any signs of oil residue, specifically referencing the 'not excessive' leaks recorded in 2024 and 2025. Inspect the front exhaust section for any signs of repair or patching following the minor gas leak noted in July 2024.
Given that aggregate data for the Zafira shows a high frequency of failures related to shock absorbers and anti-roll bars, a physical inspection of the suspension components is advised. Ensure there are no knocks or leaks from the dampers during a test drive.
This white 2014 Vauxhall Zafira has covered 76,794 miles, which is below the average annual mileage for this model. While it has passed every MOT since 2022, the history shows recurring advisories for oil leaks and brake wear in previous years. The most recent test in August 2026 recorded no defects, suggesting these previous issues may have been addressed.
The Zafira has an average MOT pass rate of 75.4%, with common fleet-wide failures often involving shock absorbers and anti-roll bars.
