Advantages: Roomy, easy to drive and fairly economical Disadvantages: Horrible blind spot and electrically unreliable
...I have owned my Zafira (elegance1.8) for coming up to 3 years. It is a V reg. and has been a lovely vehicle to drive, comfortable and easy to get passengers in and out. Children love it due to the height and added visibility for them. The 7 seats have been a godsend at times, but having to remove the boot cover bar each time and store it at home can be a pain in the proverbial. The boot space with 5 seats is very spacious, but minimal with 7.
I do have a huge concern with the visibility from the windscreen ,on each side, due to the roof support blocking a significant amount at certain times, e.g turning out from a junction. I've only had one near miss (that was one to many for my liking) and the experience taught me to be even more vigilant when checking the coast is clear. This is a common complaint from others I know who...

Advantages: Superbly functional and flexible Disadvantages: Seating comfort only moderate; useless centre armrest
...I wanted to replace my faithful Carlton with something smaller on the outside but with more internal space. My new car choice was restricted to Vauxhall due to having GM points to redeem, but I would have bought the Zafira anyway, as it is unique and fits my requirements perfectly.
Performance is comparable with a conventional car. I made a point of road testing the 1.8 engine with 7 passengers and driving uphill.
Fuel economy overall is 32. There is less variation than my Carlton which was thirstier in town but more frugal on motorways.
The first service was a reasonable £130 from my local Vauxhall main dealer. They fixed the air recycle button, cleaned the car inside and out, and gave me a 1 litre bottle of oil (like my last 3 Vauxhalls, it never uses a drop of oil or water).
A great car....

Advantages: Easy steering, lovely action, everything to hand, nets and storage space good, versatile seating. Disadvantages: Lack of storage space when all seats being used, rear lights keep blowing.
...We had to purchase a new vehicle very quickly as we only own one and our previous vehicle caught fire - we only had two free weeks use of our insurance company's car. The Zafira was an easy winner. It is very light to handle and the steering action is lovely. I have a family so versatility of space was a necessity. We have carried all sorts of sports equipment in the back - some large. We have used it for changing after sports events as well as changing babies nappies!! We have even carried long thin items of bathroom trim home, being able to poke the length through the back seat armrest whole, as it unfolds.We have transported a halfdrum sized barbeque and stand too, with the back seats down. Another advantage of the Zafira, for someone not very technically minded like me, is that the alterations to the seating/storage are very straight...
