2007 Vauxhall Zafira 1.6L Petrol · SE07 AMO

This vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 13 February 2026 at 116,891 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of passing tests without any listed advisories, suggesting the car is being kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards. The mileage is typical for a 19 year old vehicle, averaging roughly 6,152 miles per year. The distance covered between the March 2024 test at 105,223 miles and the February 2026 test at 116,891 miles shows steady, moderate usage. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or long periods of stagnation that would suggest neglect or hidden mechanical deterioration. The record shows two instances where the vehicle failed immediately before passing on the same or following day, specifically on 15 March 2024 and 11 March 2025. While the DVSA record does not specify the cause of these failures, this pattern often indicates the owner addresses minor defects quickly to secure a certificate. The lack of recurring advisories regarding corrosion or suspension wear is positive for a vehicle of this age. A buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of the chassis and suspension components. Vauxhall Zafiras of this era are prone to structural corrosion and worn suspension bushes, which may not always be flagged if they have not yet reached a critical failure point. Checking for oil leaks and the condition of the brake discs will confirm if the lack of MOT advisories reflects a comprehensive maintenance regime or merely the bare minimum required for a pass.
