The VAUXHALL ZAFIRA (2005-15) 5DR MPV 1.7 CDTI ECOFLEX DPF 110 EXCITE 6SPD is a practical family people-carrier rather than a hatchback or SUV. Its flexible seven-seat layout makes it useful for school runs, holidays and carrying bulky loads, while the Excite specification and six-speed manual aim to balance comfort with sensible running costs. mycarcheck.com has recorded 354 checks for this exact Zafira version, covering 189 distinct VINs—a substantial sample. The data shows an average private-sale valuation of £2,000, average recorded mileage of 103,000 miles and roughly 8,000 miles driven annually. Cars checked had about 2.6 previous keepers on average, offering helpful context when judging an individual car’s price and history. Against rivals such as the Ford C-MAX and Renault Grand Scénic, the Zafira stands out for flexible seating and family practicality. The diesel suits longer journeys; check service records and condition carefully, as with any older used car.
