The vauxhall Zafira is a really good car. Its as roomy as any mid-sized MPV, but it's better to drive than most and comes with lots of airbags as standard. It could have a few more stuff as the lower end models dont have much but if u buy one buy the best one.
Well the power steering is awesome and the eletronic locking is way better than normal. Plus the seats that come out at the back are reallly good and the boot is really roomy.
The lights at the front on the right side are hard to get to to replace to bulb so maybe abit more room there would be nice. The cover for the boot needs to be way better beacuse u loose the bits on the end and that is annoying sometimes.

My review about the fantastic MPV from Vauxhall, Its so good, I love the style and I dont mind saying, the speed of such a large car is great.
7 seats, with two folding down in the back is great, perfect for shopping or a day out to the seaside with the kids.
My favourite features of my Zafira would have to be, the two folding down seats in the back, the very good CD player, the hand break is weird looking and fits the design of the rest of the car and finally, the air-con.
My suggested improvements would be, to add Sat Nav to the whole range, electric windows on all the doors, alloys on all the wheels instead of those plastic fakes and thats about all.

The Vauxhall Zafira is a brilliant car for family. The amount of room is really good and I would recommend this car to anyone in my family or to my friends. The best family car it also has 7 seats so plenty of room. You can put the seats down so your able to put lots of stuff in the boot.
Power steering, eletronic windows, eletronic locking and the AC is awesome. It also has more features like its a 7 seater car and that is awesome aswell :D :D iIthink that its a really good car.
I think that it could hold abit more petrol but apart from that it nearly awesome so I would recommend this to most people.

On the whole the Zafira is not a bad layout, the cockpit area is pretty comfortable, the contols are ok, unlike some models however you have to have your ignition on to put your windows up - I know on some Vauxhalls you can do this by the key fob. The steering is responsive, once you have 7 people up there is no bootspace. The 1.6 engine is not very good and would recommend a higher cc engine.
Brilliant for putting rear seats up and down, plenty of room as a five seater, comfortable seating and controls for radio/cd are excellent.
More room once the rear 2 seats are up, you couldnt fit in a cucumber let alone luggage or anything when doing a long journey. The 1.6 engine needs looking at its pretty gutless.

We have had the Vauxhall Zafira for the best part of three years now and we bought it initially out of neccessity as our family grew and we needed a seven-seater.
After saying all of that it's been an excellent family vehicle, it's really easy to remove or fold up the rear seats, there's plenty of space to accomodate seven people. It's a quality car for the price, the only let-down being the size of the boot when the two extra seats are up. However, when they are collapsed the boot is extremely spacious!
I think the best features have to be the ability to carry seven people in relative comfort, and the vehicle's performance not suffering dramatically when doing so.
I think the drinks holders could be significantly improved, meaning that they could be a lot larger and deeper, providing a sturdier hold for the recepticals. There could also be integrated heaters for the two extra rear seats.

I have the 07 Vauxhall Zafira and I am very pleased with it. The drive is comfy, you never feel any bumps, the engine is very quiet and doesnt drink much petrol. There are 7 seats, 2 of which are in the boot but can be folded to make a larger boot space, not that you will need it. The car also comes with a mat so you can cover the folded down seats... The Zafira also boasts a very good CD/Radio system. This version also has electric windows in the front.
My favourite features of the zafira are, the CD Player, the electric windows, the foldable seats in the back, the ride comfort, the alloys. Also, the very limited Air conditioning system.
Some improvements to the Zafira would be, built in Sat Nav, Alloys accross the whole range, more legroom, a sun roof and a better air conditioning system

The Vauxhall Zafira is one of my favourite cars because of...
1) It is quite fast.
2) It's got good features on it.
3) It's quite strong and cheap to repair if anything happens to it.
4) It's a family car, it can carry up to 7 people at ones.
5) It is a very spacious.
6) It is quite cheap to buy compared to other like it.
7) It is also a very respectable car.
8) It's very comfortable.
It's best features is the space, cheapness, compactness. I also like it because it quite fun to drive and very road friendly.
I think the car makers should put some extra entertainment so kids can enjoy it even more.
They should also thnk of giving the tyres less grip to the road so you can enjoy your driving even more.

I REALLY ENJOY DRIVING THE ZAFIRA FOR MANY REASONS. IT IS EXTREMELY SPACIOUS INSIDE AND HAS SEVEN SEATS! IT DRIVES SMOOTHLY AND IS EXCELLENT IN TERMS OF IT'S PETROL CONSUMPTION. THE TWO BACK SEATS FOLD FLAT AND THE THREE CENTRE SEATS FOLD DOWN. THIS IS BRILLIANT IF YOU NEED LOTS OF ROOM. THE PEOPLE CARRIER SITS HIGHER THAN ORDINARY SALOON CARS MAKING YOU FEEL SAFER ON THE ROAD. OVERALL A BRILLIANT CAR!!!
MY FAVOURITE FEATURES ARE THE COLLAPSIBLE SEATS. THIS IS A GREAT IDEA PARTICULARLY IF YOU HAVE A DOG! I ALSO BENEFIT GREATLY FROM THE SEVEN SEATS, THIS IS GREAT FOR TAKING MY LARGE FAMILY OUT AND ALSO FOR A NIGHT OUT WITH THE GIRLS!
I THINK THAT THE INTERIOR OF THE CAR COULD BE SLIGHTLY MORE HARDWEARING. OUR CAR HAS A LIGHT COLOURED INTERIOR, DARK COLOURS COULD BE BETTER.

I bought this car second hand a number of years ago from a dealership. The reason I chose the Zafira was due to the fact I have a growing family and needed an MPV, that was spacious and reliable. I had heard and read many reviews about Vauxhall saying how they were the most reliable etc. etc. however, I can say this has not been my experience. For the first few years the car was reliable but since then I've had no end of problems. At the moment for example, the central locking no longer works and also the car constantly keeps cutting out, ALL the time, I've been to a garage to see how much repairs will cost and it works out more than the car is worth so I don't see any point. Another thing I've just remembered that I almost forgot due to the fact I haven't had use of it for such a long time is the car radio, no reception on any frequencies at all. In future I will not be buying another Vauxhall.
Space is a massive feature within the car, especially boot space for going camping etc, big shops. Another favourite is the option on seven seats, especially when my children's friends are round for dinner etc. The car has an excellent air conditioning system that is fantastic in the summer.
One of the main improvements I would suggest would be a decent radio system, the cd player/speakers are fantastic however, the radio is terrible, like I mentioned previously the frequencies are all un-tunable. It's terrible, having something to listen to would at least distract me from all the other features that have broken down!

The Vauxhall Zafira is a great family car, the kids can fit in the back with plenty of room. There is also alot of room in the boot. We go on alot of journeys out and the ride is excellent. Our Zafira has everything as standard, it comes with electric windows, central locking and sunroof. It is very comfy and it is very reliable. I've had this one on black now for 2 years and have never had to replace any parts. I have the 2 Litre petrol version and we get on average 35 MPG.
- Adjustable seats in the back for the kids
- Massive boot
- Lots of room for the kids
- Reliable
- Good Miles Per Galon
The interior comes accross as a bit pound shop-ish.
I would change the interior to match the price of the car.
