2000 Vauxhall Zafira Elegance 1.8 from UK and Ireland
Summary:
Excellent, practical family MPV
Faults:
The only things that have "gone wrong" in almost 3 years are
- one headlight bulb,
- worn tires (no surprise after 40,000 miles!)
- the tab that keeps the washer bottle cap in place snapped
- one fog lamp smashed by a stone.
General Comments:
Pleasantly surprised at how well the car handles and very pleased with how responsive the engine is (particularly compared with my Galaxy, that had a larger engine!).
Now I am used to the high up driving position of MPV s I would be reluctant to go back to a "normal" car.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Couldn't agree more re the arm rest in the middle of the two front seats.
Who designed this? I think they couldn't solve the problem and therefore just lived with it.
It is very uncomfortable to change gear / set handbrake with the arm rest down.
