1999 Vauxhall Zafira Comfort review from UK and Ireland
"A decent sized, comfortable family car, not a bus."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I get through headlight bulbs very quickly, and have to pay 15 minutes of mechanic time, making each change £25!
Power steering has failed, but Vauxhall will not accept that this is anything more than fair wear and tear, and have currently offered a 20% goodwill payment. They will not offer anything off if I buy a new one - which I was in the process of doing! I am trying to take it further.
Windscreen washer tank is far too small!
Stalls at low speeds - traffic lights, roundabouts, etc.
General comments?
Only niggly faults, apart from the current power steering problem.
I love this car, think it's the best I've had since my Mini (less practical for families!)
Come on, Vauxhall, get your act together and sort out these problems!
