Our Verdict
Proceed with caution due to high mileage
Focus on the recent oil leak advisory from December 2025; ask for evidence of a repair or a professional assessment to ensure it has not worsened. Given the high mileage (over 100,000 miles), request the full service history to verify if major components have been replaced according to the manufacturer's schedule.
Negotiate the price based on the potential need for upcoming maintenance. High-mileage petrol engines often require more frequent attention to seals and gaskets, and the previous advisory for pitted rear brake discs suggests that wear-and-tear items may be due for replacement.
The 1364cc petrol engine provides a balance of utility, though fuel economy will be lower than diesel alternatives for a vehicle of this size. It falls into a standard VED tax band for 2018 petrol vehicles and a moderate insurance group.
Annual maintenance costs are likely to increase as the vehicle has surpassed the 100,000-mile mark. Expect higher spending on consumables and potential repairs to the suspension and engine seals.
Specifically inspect the engine bay for signs of the oil leak mentioned in the December 2025 MOT. Check the suspension components, particularly the anti-roll bar linkages, as this vehicle has already failed on one and this is a known weak point for the Zafira model.
Additionally, examine the rear brake discs for pitting or scoring, following the advisory recorded in May 2024, and check the current tread depth of the offside front tyre, which was noted as being close to the legal limit in May 2025.
This blue 2018 Vauxhall Zafira has recorded 103,480 miles, which is well above the average annual mileage for this model. Its MOT history shows five tests with one failure related to an anti-roll bar linkage, which aligns with common failure patterns for the Zafira. Recent records indicate a non-excessive oil leak and previous advisories for tyre wear and brake disc condition.
The Zafira has an average MOT pass rate of 75.4%, with common failures frequently linked to shock absorbers and anti-roll bar components.
