2008 Vauxhall Zafira Life 1.8 from UK and Ireland
Summary:
The Easytronic version is a step back in time
Faults:
In automatic the gear change is appallingly jolting.
On a hill in a traffic queue recently, the car rolled backwards when I tried to move forward! The car behind was startled to say the least!
This happened each time I tried to move forward (twice).
I had to use both feet to hold the brake and gas pedals to move the car forward, as I had tried everything else!
General Comments:
Having owned an automatic for 12 years before the 'Zafira Easytronic', and having never been let down once, I would never buy an 'Easytronic' again.
In every other respect I like the car very much. It's super comfy, spacious, and a nice ride.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Don't Know

Use the handbrake, that's what it's for - to stop the car from rolling back on a hill.
