thats very strong money for a petrol Zafira
From what I saw it seems like the going rate for one with 50k miles all new tyres and in very good condition. There was a 2008 one in a local used car garage for £2750 with 90k miles on it, 1.8L.

Here’s basically the same mode.

No PDI I’m afraid. Anyway. It’s going to a main dealer now so I hope they can sort it. Thanks.

It doesn’t seem to be a problem. It’s working although the air con isn’t massively great anyway, same with my girlfriends Vauxhall. I think it’s just the quality of the vehicles.

If it’s a recall then I can get Vauxhall’s to do it for free can’t i?

Edit: I believe it’s for more modern ones anyway.

2007 Zafira b definitely included...... wife chose one just before the news picked up about the issues. Do a Google search for it.

Get onto your nearest dealer who should be able to tell you if its been done.....

No worries, guessing it's a family car and some of the videos are pretty scary.....we stopped locking the car whilst we were driving and disabled child locks; don't want any delay if the worst happens!

Don't worry about it. If you said you'd paid £1000 for a 3 month old Ferrari with delivery mileage someone on here would still pop up to say that you'd paid too much.
