2009 Vauxhall Zafira 1.6L Petrol · SW58 BTV

The 2009 Vauxhall Zafira has a mixed MOT history with two failures and three passes over seven years, but no defects were recorded in any of the tests. The most recent MOT on 2023-04-21 showed a pass at 92,012 miles, but a failure occurred just eight days earlier at 91,841 miles. This suggests potential inconsistency in testing or unresolved issues that were later resolved, though no specific defects were documented. The lack of defect details limits the ability to assess the severity of the failure. The vehicle’s mileage of 92,012 miles over 17 years equates to roughly 5,412 miles per year, which is significantly lower than average for its age. This low mileage could indicate infrequent use, long periods of inactivity, or storage, which may lead to issues like fluid degradation, corrosion, or seized components. However, without evidence of wear-related defects in the MOT history, it is unclear if these risks have materialized. The MOT pattern shows no clear trend of worsening or improving condition. The 2020 failure at 68,518 miles and the 2023 failure at 91,841 miles occurred without recorded defects, while the 2022 pass at 79,595 miles and 2020 pass at 68,534 miles were clean. This suggests the vehicle may have had intermittent issues that were not flagged, or the failures could have been administrative errors.
