2009 Vauxhall Zafira 1.6L Petrol · HN58 VBZ

The vehicle currently presents a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent inspection in February 2026 at 91,956 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows signs of recent improvement following a period of concern in early 2025. While the vehicle suffered from multiple failures related to emissions, lighting, and suspension, the subsequent pass without advisories indicates that these specific mechanical issues were addressed by the owner between the tests. At 17 years old, the recorded mileage of 91,956 miles represents relatively low annual usage, averaging approximately 5,400 miles per year. This usage pattern is consistent across the records, with a 3,467-mile gap noted between February 2023 and February 2024. While low mileage often suggests less wear on the drivetrain and engine, it can also mask age-related degradation of rubber components, seals, and metal due to environmental exposure, which is evidenced by the recurring corrosion noted in the suspension components. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension, as the February 2025 test identified all four coil springs as corroded. Although these artwork to have been replaced given the clean 2026 report, the buyer should check for structural rust on the mounting points and adjacent areas. The braking system also requires attention; the history shows front brake discs were flagged as worn and pitted in 2025. It is essential to verify that the discs and pads were replaced and that the calipers are not binding or leaking. The carbon monoxide failure in February 2025 at 89,806 miles suggests a potential issue with engine combustion or sensor health at that time. While the vehicle later passed emissions, a buyer should monitor for rough idling or excessive exhaust smoke. Furthermore, the previous reports of artwork damage and tyre wear in 2024 indicate that the vehicle may have suffered from minor cosmetic neglect, necessitating a check of the current tyre tread depths and glass integrity to ensure no new cracks have developed.
