Our Verdict
A reasonable purchase based on a consist
Prioritise a check of the service history to see if the exhaust flexi pipe has been replaced, as this issue was flagged in both 2024 and 2026. You should use the recent advisories regarding the damaged nearside front tyre, the nail in the nearside rear, and the binding offside rear brake as points for price negotiation, as these will require immediate attention.
Ensure that the 1.4L petrol engine has a documented history of regular oil changes. While the MOT record is clean of failures, checking for evidence of suspension work is advisable given the model's wider failure trends.
The 1364cc petrol engine offers a balance of utility and cost, though fuel expenditure will be higher than in diesel equivalents. This vehicle will fall into a mid-range insurance group typical for family MPVs of this era, and road tax will be based on its 2015 CO2 emissions profile.
Maintenance costs are likely to be moderate, but buyers should be mindful of the cost of replacing tyres and exhaust components, which have appeared frequently in this vehicle's history. Estimated annual running costs include fuel, tax, insurance, and routine servicing.
Carefully inspect the exhaust system, specifically the flexi pipe, which has been noted as leaking in the 2024 and 2026 MOT tests. Examine all four tyres closely; the most recent test flagged a damaged sidewall and a nail, and previous tests in 2022 and 2023 also highlighted tyre wear and perishing.
Test the braking system to ensure the offside rear brake is no longer binding, as noted in May 2026. Finally, check the condition of the shock absorbers and anti-roll bars, as these are among the most common failure points for the Zafira model across the aggregate data set.
This silver 2015 Vauxhall Zafira has covered 75,939 miles, which is below the model's average annual mileage. The vehicle has passed its last five MOT tests without failure, although it has a recurring advisory regarding a leaking exhaust flexi pipe. The data indicates a vehicle that has consistently met the minimum legal requirements for roadworthiness.
The Zafira has a moderate reliability reputation, with an average MOT pass rate of 75.4% across 265,826 analysed vehicles.
