2010 Vauxhall Zafira 1.6L Petrol · KS10 TFK

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent inspection in September 2024 at 121,048 miles. The maintenance trend appears consistent, as the car consistently achieves a pass without recorded defects following previous minor failures. While the history shows two failures in August 2023 and August 2024, the immediate passes on subsequent tests suggest that any mechanical issues identified by the tester were addressed promptly by the owner rather than indicating a pattern of ongoing neglect. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a sixteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,500 miles per year. Data shows a significant increase of 18,891 miles between August 2022 and August 2023, followed by another 11,873 miles between August 2023 and September 2024. This usage suggests the vehicle is used regularly, which is generally beneficial for preventing brake components from seizing or tyres flat from long periods of standing. The intervals between tests are standard, providing no evidence that the car has sat stationary and exposed to the elements for extended durations. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and underbody components, as older Vauxhall models are prone to surface corrosion in the sills and wheel arches. Given the mileage, checking the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of wear or tearing is advisable. You should also verify the state of the brake discs and pads for signs of uneven wear or thinning, as the previous MOT failures indicate that these areas have at least once required immediate attention to meet roadworthiness standards.
