Opel Zafira 2005 reviews
Pros: Tall, roomy, neat, comfortable interior, pleasant ride, sturdy suspension, generally not that much to repair for a 19 year old car, easy to repair, not expensive to maintain compared to other cars. All in all, a fair service for an Opel.
Cons: There is some rust above the sills, under the doors, on the bottom of the boot lid, but at least there are no holes. Sometimes eats oil but other years stops again, soot filter long expired. The air conditioner needs to be filled every year.

Pros: Pleasant and ergonomic interior. Good steering. Very powerful brakes.
Cons: Lack of power. There is no information on engine coolant temperature - it tends to boil at heavy traffic. Expensive parts (for example thermostat 150 euro, window cleaners 50euro - only genuine parts fits etc.). Very embarrassing repairs - the front bulbs changeable through a trap-door at muddy wheel arch.
