2011 Vauxhall Zafira 1.7L Diesel · LS11 YUN

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent pass record over the last several years. The most recent inspection conducted on 20 May 2025 at 67,456 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety standards. This follows a clean pass in May 2023 and January 2022, suggesting that the owner has maintained the vehicle to a functional standard without recurring major mechanical or structural failures. The mileage pattern is notably low for a 15-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,500 miles per annum. Between the January 2022 test at 55,344 miles and the May 2025 test at 67,456 miles, the car covered 12,112 miles over over three years. While this low usage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, long periods of inactivity can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components and brake systems. The failure recorded on 30 May 2024 at 63,854 miles, followed immediately by a pass one mile later, indicates a minor issue that was rectified quickly rather than a chronic mechanical fault. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to age-related decay rather than high-mile wear. Check for perished hoses, seized brake calipers, and degraded suspension bushes, which are common issues in vehicles that sit stationary. Given the low mileage, verify the condition of the brake discs for corrosion or pitting, as surface rust can develop when cars are not used frequently. The structural integrity of the chassis should also be examined for rust, though the history has not previously flagged any advisories for significant corrosion.
