Vauxhall Zafira Life 1.6i 16v Dualfuel

Advantages: lots of power for a people carrier, very stylish inside and out , great fun to drive
Disadvantages: can be a bit sluggish from stanstill when all seats occupied but soon picks up and can keep up with most sporty cars out there. :-)

...this is my second zafira the first being a 1.6 comfort on a t plate (99) and i would say the design in the cockpit has changed for the better the handbrake is great being like a gear retractor in an aeroplane cockpit also more storage space than its predeoscer, more power points, built in security for cd player then again better security all round. as previously written the a pillars are still a bit wide as they tends to be a bit of a blind spot but its not a problem when you get use to em and any good driver will know how to establish blind spot errors .. controls are better gearstick is now up towards the dash easier to change gear quicker total lock button now in cabin... could go on all day but you have to drive one to appreciate it.. a1 car well done vauxhall cant wait to get behind the wheel of the new zafira vxr . oh forgot...

...This is an excellent family car it has a load of room in the boot and leg room is fantastic. I swapped the new Vauxhall Astra 1.4i in for this Vauxhall Zafira and it is the best thing i did as having a little boy i need as much space as possible which i wasn't getting with the Astra but you certainly do with the Zafira. The Zafira i have is a 2007 plate and the car is higher up than the Astra i had and it took me a couple of hours to get used to driving the Zafira as it was slightly different to other cars i have driven.
