Looks great.
Reasonable equipment level.
Seems solidly made.
Usual Zafira flexibility.
Absurd, unreasonable and Intolerable tyre noise which renders the car useless.
Fuel economy - less than 20mpg round town.
Bought this to replace my old-model 2.2 Elegance Zafira which was supremely refined.
This car is simply too NOISY!
Tyre noise is the problem - at any speed above 30mph it starts to intrude progressively until by 70mph I can just stand it and at 80mph, forget it.
I own an Astra Convertible with big tyres - it is quieter with the hood down at 100mph than this car is at 80mph.
If you look at the forums on reviewcentre.com you will see that I am not alone in this experience. I will do my best to keep this review updated if there is any progress but it took one owner 18 months to get any improvement!
