2014 Vauxhall Zafira 2.0L Diesel · Y3 KCL

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean pass recorded in the most recent test on 19 December 2025 at 60,828 miles. While the vehicle passed without defects on this date, the record shows an immediate failure during the same testing session. The tester flagged a non-functional front windscreen washer and a serious structural defect on the nearside front tyre, specifically a lump caused by separation or partial failure. This indicates that while the vehicle is currently roadworthy, the previous owner had to address specific consumable and safety-related issues to secure the most recent pass. The mileage history indicates a low-usage pattern for a 2014 model, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per year. Between January 2025 and December 2025, the vehicle covered 7,366 miles, which represents a slight increase in annual usage compared to the historical average. The data shows consistent annual testing, with the gap between the December 2023 and January 2025 tests being the only notable period of inactivity. This low mileage suggests the vehicle has likely seen light use, though it may have spent periods stationary, which can sometimes lead to uneven tyre wear or perished rubber components. A prospective buyer should focus physical inspections on the tyre condition and the integrity of the wheel assemblies. The January 2024 test highlighted both front tyres being worn close to the legal limit, and the December 2025 failure involved a structural tyre defect. This recurring pattern of tyre-related issues suggests that while mechanical components appear well-maintained, the owner may be reactive rather than proactive regarding consumable upkeep. Beyond the tyres, the absence of advisories regarding brake discs, pads, or suspension bushes in the recent records is a positive indicator. However, given the low annual mileage, a buyer should check for any signs of age-related degradation in rubber hoses, belts, or suspension components that can occur when a vehicle is driven infrequently. The recent windscreen washer failure is a minor electrical or plumbing issue, but it serves as a reminder to verify that all peripheral driver aids and fluid delivery systems are fully operational.
