2008 Vauxhall Zafira Exclusiv review from UK and Ireland
"A great car let down by the pre-delivery inspection"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Delivery faults.
The opening glass on all 4 doors had deep scratches on the outside surface. All opening glass is being replaced under warranty. The dealer can offer no reason for the scratches, other than they should not be there. All other glass on the car seems fine.
The paint finish seems a bit rough (Black Sapphire - Pearlescent), The bonnet, roof and tailgate are smooth, yet the rest seems rough as if there was some over spray on them.
General comments?
The 2.2 16v petrol engine pulls well.
25mpg so far.
4 speed auto box is as sweet as ever.
Cabin seems well put together.
