2014 Vauxhall Zafira 1.8L Petrol · WN14 AEP

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent test on 11 February 2026 at 64,516 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, despite an initial failure on the same day. This immediate rectification suggests a minor issue that was quickly addressed prior to the retest, indicating that the vehicle currently meets the minimum legal safety standards without outstanding mechanical faults. The mileage pattern is notably low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,376 miles per year. The data shows steady but incremental usage, moving from 31,184 miles in February 2023 to 41,742 miles in February 2024, and then to 54,204 miles by March 2025. This low mileage typically reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine, though the long intervals between periods of use can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components, perished seals, or fluid acidity rather than friction-related tear. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components prone to age in low-mileage cars. Since the MOT history shows no recurring advisories for suspension bushes or brake corrosion, the priority shifts to checking for structural rust on the sills and wing arches which often affects vehicles that sit stationary. Inspect the brake discs for pitting or surface, as infrequent use can prevent the rotors from cleaning themselves. Additionally, verify the tyres for sidewall cracking, as the age of the rubber often outlasts the tread depth in low-use scenarios.
