The VAUXHALL ZAFIRA (2005-15) 5DR MPV 1.8 16V 140 ENERGY is a practical, five-door family MPV: taller and roomier than a hatchback, with flexible seating for changing passenger and luggage needs. It sits in the mainstream used-car market as an affordable alternative to larger SUVs and people carriers. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 228 checks covering 121 different VINs, a useful sample of cars attracting buyer interest. Its data shows an average private-sale valuation of £1,400, average recorded mileage of 98,000 miles and around 6,000 miles driven annually. Cars have averaged about three to four previous keepers, so condition and history deserve attention. The 1.8-litre petrol engine offers motoring that feels familiar, making this Zafira suitable for families needing school-run space, weekend practicality or extra seats. Its flexible cabin is a key draw against rivals such as the Ford C-Max and Renault Scenic; buyers should check seating, service records and wear, as with an older MPV.
