2010 Vauxhall Zafira 1.6L Petrol · YR60 KHD

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a pattern of reactive rather than proactive mechanical care. While the most recent test in June 2025 at 120,598 miles was a pass, the preceding failure in 2024 indicates a period of significant neglect regarding critical safety components. The presence of a non-excessive oil leak in both 2022 and 2025 suggests a persistent issue that the previous owners have opted to monitor rather than rectify. At 120,598 miles over 16 years, the Zafira averages approximately 7,500 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a family vehicle of this age. Data shows consistent movement, with roughly 11,000 miles covered between June 2023 and June 2024, and another 11,200 miles between June 2024 and 2025. This steady accumulation suggests the vehicle is used regularly, which is generally beneficial for seals and mechanical components to prevent seizing. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the rear suspension and exhaust system. The 2024 failure at 109,298 miles highlighted a fractured offside coil spring and a major exhaust leak, issues that required immediate repair but should be checked for secondary damage. The excessive corrosion on the nearside rear brake pipe noted in that same test is a high-risk area for an aging Vauxhall, as rust often spreads to the structural mounting of the braking lines. The record also shows a recurring trend of poor tyre maintenance, with worn edges and low tread depth flagged in 2022, 2024, and 2025. This uneven wear often indicates persistent alignment issues or worn shock absorbers that have not yet been properly addressed. Furthermore, the previous lambda sensor reading failure in 2024 suggests potential engine management issues or sensor degradation that should be monitored for fuel economy performance to ensure the emissions system remains operating efficiently.
