The VAUXHALL ZAFIRA (2005-15) 5DR MPV 1.8 16V 140 EXCITE is a practical five-door family people-carrier, rather than a conventional hatchback or SUV. Its flexible cabin and seven-seat layout make it a familiar choice in the UK used MPV market, offering passenger space without the bulk of a large van. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 76 checks across 44 different VINs, a useful but modest snapshot of buyer interest. Those records show an average latest mileage of 97,000 miles, around 7,000 miles driven yearly, and about three previous keepers. The average private-sale valuation is £1,800, placing examples firmly in affordable used-car territory. The 1.8-litre petrol suits school runs, family outings and errands, while the Zafira is best for households needing seats and flexibility. It is not as economical as a small hatchback, but stands out against rivals for its spacious cabin and adaptable seating. When viewing one, check its history and condition.
