2011 Vauxhall Zafira 1.6L Petrol · GY11 ACF

The Vauxhall Zafira currently holds no valid MOT pass, with the most recent test on 2026-04-20 at 153,995 miles resulting in a failure with no defects recorded, leaving its present roadworthiness unconfirmed. The maintenance trend is ambiguous rather than clearly stable or worsening, as the vehicle passed cleanly in May 2025 at 151,512 miles yet failed twice on administrative or unrecorded grounds (May 2025 and June 2024) before passing the following day or month. Such repeat failures with no listed defects suggest clerical re-tests or withdrawn initial results, not progressive mechanical decline. Mileage stands at 153,995 miles against a 2011 build, averaging roughly 10,266 miles per year which is typical for the age. The record shows 146,621 miles in June 2024, 151,512 by May 2025, and 153,995 by April 2026, a low annual accumulation of under 4,000 miles in the latest period. No rapid accumulation or standing gaps appear; the sparse history with zero advisories across four years implies either light use or minimal documented inspection depth from testers. A buyer must commission a fresh MOT and physical inspection before purchase, given the April 2026 failure leaves the car legally unroadworthy until cleared. The clean advisory record masks risk on a 15-year-old high-mileage MPV where suspension bushes, coil springs, and subframe corrosion typically develop unseen. Prior owners presented the car for repeat tests without recorded faults, implying they addressed administrative issues promptly but left no evidence of proactive mechanical care. Inspect brake discs, binding calipers, exhaust emissions, and structural integrity at the test centre, as the Zafira's age makes undocumented rust and worn consumables likely despite the empty defect lines.
