2012 Vauxhall Zafira 1.6L Petrol · SE12 LPF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 24 March 2026 at 93,061 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the record shows no defects or advisories across the last three years of testing. The cluster of failures on 19 and 23 March 2026 is unusual given that no specific defects were recorded in the data provided, suggesting administrative errors or rapid rectification of minor issues before the final pass. The mileage is typical for a 14 year old vehicle, averaging roughly 6,647 miles per year. Usage has remained consistent, with a steady increase from 81,181 miles in March 2024 to 84,358 miles in March 2025. A more significant jump occurred over the following year, adding nearly 9,000 miles by the March 2026 test. This indicates the car is in regular use rather than sitting idle, which generally helps preserve rubber seals and battery health. Because the MOT history is exceptionally clean and lacks specific advisories, there are no recurring mechanical trends to flag. A buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of the chassis and sills for corrosion, as these are common failure points for Zafiras of this era that may not have been highlighted in these specific tests. Checking the condition of the suspension bushes and brake discs for surface rust or wear is advised, given the vehicle's age. The absence of recorded defects over several years suggests a disciplined approach to maintenance by the previous owner. The focus for a prospective buyer should remain on the physical state of consumables and the structural integrity of the underbody to ensure no latent issues exist beyond the scope of the recorded tests.
