I get the impression that the Zafira is a bit dull.

[Sir Tigger KC]

I agree with The Boy.  get a Zafira B. In fact I have one for sale. 

Still can't shift it then? 

To quote EMD, I'll give you 99p 

Can't even give it away. It's been on ebay because the fees are cheap but I'll stick it on autotrader and see how it goes.

Gumtree.  It's free! 

Full of scammers though, more so than eBay, so need to be careful 

I wouldn't say that there are anymore scammers on Gumtree than Ebay or Autotrader to be honest, but you're right Tunnie,  it's a bit careless not being careful.

Its stunning at doing what it is designed to do well.

There ok, not sporty (although the VXR makes a pretty decent fist of it)

[EMD]

They are all shite.

The Zafira-B does appear to be a decent refinement of them, with better diesel engines.

I really cannot find anything nice to say about the Zafira-A. Apart from the bigger petrol engine ones (which are thirsty), they are underpowered. They don't handle that well (obviously), and they are bloody uncomfortable.

 


Zafira B , cant see any of them being cheap and a quick look shows there are just as many problems with them  Absolutely loads of A and B up for spares and repairs and a lot with no service history at all

How about a Frontera, Mr Emd?

Is TB willing to part with his?

Always, but not for 99p. That wouldn't cover the shoe leather to walk around town looking for the bloody thing.

  There are huge amounts of them around as it was the best selling people carrier for several years. As others may say, not the best. I get on fine with mine so will buy another.

I wasn't particularly impressed with my daughters 1.8 petrol, to the point where I wouldn't have one. The Qashqui tractor she has replaced it with, is a more expensive vehicle, but has been much more reliable (she currently does about 30k a year and has had no major problems) and it is much more refined.

[EMD]

But isnt it like any other car that does not get looked after , like never serviced and just used and abused its going to fail at some point ..just like an omega  The thing is with the zafira is that its just a practical car used for shipping people about and moving stuff 

[Rods2]

My daughters was regularly serviced by a good friend of her partners who runs a local independent garage specializing in Vauxhalls. Whether you get a Monday morning, Friday afternoon or a midday Wednesday car is the luck of the draw, but you can only judge it on what you've got and experienced!

Most cars will have some non-service issues, just that some will more than others! The best I've personally known for this is somebody I know who has had several Honda Accords and all he has ever needed is service items apart from a wheel bearing that went at about 140k miles.
