Think of the Vauxhall Zafira Tourer as a more upmarket and stylish replacement for the Zafira and a more direct competitor to the Ford S-MAX. As of its launch at the beginning of 2012 the Tourer will be sold side-by-side with the Zafira but with prices for the Tourer starting at £21,000 -- about £6,000 more than the car it effectively replaces. The engine line-up and chassis have both been updated for a more stable and involving driving experience with better performance and cheaper running costs. Our pick would be one of the 2.0-litre diesel engines -- the 163bhp unit in particular -- as we expect the petrols will be costly to run.

Авто/Мото
Well, I've pretty much always driven Vauxhalls (Opals). First the Corsa, then the Zafira, then the Tourer, and they've all been very reliable, practical cars. I I don't need anything flashy. I've got kids and they trash everything they sit in anyway. I just need something spacious, which gets us from A to B without breaking down. This car does it for me. :) Have driven the S Max and a Kia Sedona and quite liked them, but always preferred coming back to my own car. The only thing I miss about the S Max, is the fast defrost on the windscreen, in Winter. Tourer only has it on the back screen. :(
going to order one of these end of may sri in black.sooooooooo cant wait
Matt is back. Start watching car buyer again! :)
that aged well :)
Another good review from carbuyer.
Clutch on these is ridiculously Hard!
Great review!
Yes, and I was comparing the OPEL interior to HYUNDAI! YOU brought up Vauxhall.
excelente spot comercial , Vauxhall zafira ? acá en Argentina se llama Chevrolet Zafira , excelente video , saludos
miss you matt!
I drive a Merc but I do love the look of Vauxhalls these days and really like that new corporate look :o)
Great review Matt :o)
please post the link for the old zafira too :D
Mat I just love your outfits in these vids
Matt could you review two cars:subaru forester and subaru xv.
can you make a review on the vauxhall agila please?
Now that I think about it it makes sense, I guess it has to do with the steering-wheel being on the right side. So Vauxhall mounts it directly without having to change it from Opel's postion.. smart move indeed.
@carbuyer brilliant review as usual keep it up!!
Got the elite version with every option ticked including the bike carrier and the continual damping system. A seriously underestimate car. Such a shame its no longer made. Cant fault the car
Can you do one on the Vauxhall vectra
ever since the Insignia, Vauxhall or Opel are on a roll with design(Interior and Exterior)
review the citroen ds5 ..and the new nissan sunny plz
I like you Carbuyer man watch you video
Matt, you have yet to review a SUBARU. Please review Forester or Impreza. Thanks.
is it rear wheel drive or front wheel drive?
@derbigpr500 yes!!! pause at 0:23, you can clearly see the similar "alien" shape of the dash!!
I'm not criticising the Zafira, I think it's a really nice car!
I agree!
Are there any isofix points at the the back two rear seats
If your still wondering yes I’ve got one
Gde mogu nabaviti tako dobar auto. Skoljko mani. Rok isporuke. Hvala.
@omarbigo57 the Buick regal is a vauxhall/opel insignia just badge engineered
Come on when will you do a review of Citroen DS5?
Still good review for buying the seconhand car :-)
Agree! Are you considering? If so, which version?
Nice car man
my 02 hyundai trajet is much better than alot of family cars now adays it has 7 full sized seats that slide recline and can be removed. It's not unrilable rather in the 13 years we have it it has broken down 2 and very little has had to is also comfortable and east to drive
eyes on the road matt! :-)
72 mpg, woow that's something
Here's an idea. If you're smart enough to make a removable parcell shelf then supply an accesible area within the car to safely store it lol.
After the Signum's celery holders, GM engineers once again show a level of thoughtfulness and attention to detail that we've simply don't see it from any other car maker. In most cars, the banana rolls around getting in the way of the major controls, which is quite annoying and can be very dangerous. No, really, who else provides storage for a banana? Not even a Mercedes-Benz S-class has that!
10/10 Top Gear reference
What spec of car is your Zafira? Cause the S Max you have is top of the range it should be good. I have an Insignia sri i love it amazing car so the better spec car you buy the better the car the better lookin too i think. The S Max is a smart looking car though.
This trim level is either energy or techline
I'm not having more than two kids cus I don't want an MPV, that being said the new Zafira looks quite stylish
Matt,test fiat doblo thanks
@omarbigo57 vauxhall is owned by general motors. and they share some design elements and even some models with GM.
When i looked you placing bananas and coins around i fell in love in ny Multivan again.
Matt, you need to join the Top Gear Team...
Or start your own show.
It was a good compact MPV.
COOL
That's in Wycombe
review a subaru please!
The vw sharan looks a lot better, is bigger and will be more reliable. My dads 2 year old Astra has experienced a couple of probs as Vauxhalls build quality isn't great
This MPV really looked respectable at first.
But I had to laugh when Mat pointed out that there are 30 storage cubbies, but none of them are really useful for much of anything. 30 tries, and they just couldn't get it right. Mat may not have been trying to be funny there, but he was.
You've got your reviewing style Mat. Don't lose it!
Hey Mat!
"Although, of course, you’d always wish that you had the Tourer"
Lemmy: I’m not owning a Vauxhall. Not even by a long shot.
#respectVW
I beg your pardon?
Lemmy: Yeah, what did you say?
Can you get an automatic version?
Yes
@TheOne42 because they once had a car called Vauxhall, until GM took it over.
came here for a review on the motor what do i get a really bad advert for avoiding zafira drivers driving while being streamed is bad enough but keep ye friggin eyes on the road
I like this car, it's big and practical, cheap to run but as usual Vauxhall have over-priced. What's the point? Vauxhall is not a premium brand, the build quality is shabby and the only good thing about this particular model is the fact it can get 70+mpg, which for a people carrier is great I think. Maybe throw some more common sense in like storage for the parcel shelf, bigger rear seats and more practical storage then it would be lovely all-rounder.
3:56, LOL 😂😹
It is the 'Elite' model, and everything fell apart, the glove box fell off as well as the interior trim when you shut either of the front two doors. :/
It is an energy model I can tell because If it was elite the window surround would be chrome not black
All vauxhall today are good looking
The new Zafira design 2018 looks better and Insignia 2018 is one of the best looking cars in 2018
It's the damnedest thing -- I've been looking high and low for a car that has a built-in banana nook. And by jove, I've finally found one! Too bad they don't sell it here.
Is vauxhall the Buick In America
Koje je godište koje gorivo i koja je cena. Za ostalo bole me...
4.0 biturbo 2012 elektricna
@mustsilm legacy!
@TheLucifer69 Stalker?
Why Opel is called 'Vauxhall' in England?
Is that Mat Watson?
Yes
Enough fight of car colour people. Gay this gay that. It's just a colour and it's just a car.
getting Zafira 2.0 CDTi SE 5dr 2012
How is it with you?
if automator goes theres 3 different ones and hard to find out which your needs
Daiyaan Hyder I like the new zafire tired
i still have this car lol
iv never herd of this car brand maybe cause i live in australia
I heard in Australia its caled Holden, which is Vauxhall/Opel
I wonder what world journalists live in. He gives this a kicking for being basically a 4+3 seater. Think about a normal large family. How likely is it the older two will reach adulthood and still not be driving themselves by the time the others reach adulthood?
So in almost all cases this will be plenty while costing less to run and driving better than a lot of other, larger (for the sake of it) people carriers. If you really need to move 7 full sized people all the time most 7 seaters are little or no use. That's when you go for something like a tourneo/caravelle. By the time you get to a 7 seater that takes 7 full sized adults you're knocking on the door of the van based cars running costs anyway and still have half the space.
Now imagine if BMW or the hallowed VW/Audi had made it. I bet the praises would be sung from the highest hill.
I like Rebecca to ;)
Me want
Don't like the colour but car is very nice, Jeremy Clarkson said its one of his favourite cars and its in his top 10 car list.

Looks like a knock off copy of the Mazda 5 which I have. But at least mine has sliding doors and not the standard doors seen on this Minivan. I keep my Mazda 5 as it's just what I need, don't need anything bigger.
Citroen C4 Normal Picasso is the best
It's like a Ford galaxy
I have the same car
How is it?
i really reccomend the ford galaxy
it is soo spacious and has plenty bot spaces
i have to say it is better than the zafira
(it is seven seater)
Vauxhall and Opel are the same company :)
Pretty, but I like more Volkswagen Touran
Grand C4 Picasso is a much better all rounder - it has been the king of all MPV's since 2007
Zafira is the king of MPVs, its been since the start at 2000.
Zafira is the best selling MPV, not to mention that Vauxhall is the top 3 best selling car brands in the UK.
Zafira A came third in European car of the year in 2000.
Zafira came with FLEX7 seating which modern MPVs copied from Zafira.
Zafira A OPC/GSI was the first sports MPV and the fastest, Zafira B VXR is also the fastest.
Zafira C is the fastest turbo powered diesel MPV.
Fastest Zafira has 611BHP, 'Mad Zaf'.
Jeremy Clarkson said the Zafira Tourer is one of his favourite cars.
volkswagen up please
This thing has the exact same indicator levers as the Aveo. Not too nice.
Funny how Opel and Hyundai have very similar dash centres?
If you're not going to find Matt her in Australia, he's English. -.-
Hello yall I'm from 2020
Isofix in this car ???????
yes
I’ve got one and it dies
What is a vauxhall it is opel
they're the same just in England it's called vauxhall
We just brought one, it's utter shit compared to our S-max, drives exactly the same as the old one, noisy, unrefined, same old engine choice. All they spent the money on is new styling, which i like :) however it looks nowhere near as good as our S-max Titanium X Sport and can't match the quality or practicality. The glove compartment lid has quite literally broken and falls out every time you open the glove box, the cheap build is awful, we are scrapping it soon. The S-max is a much better MPV.
I have that car but its longer than the B
dude I think you need a new banana
This is not a 7 seater, its more like 4.5 plus mini 2. Lol
Why won't GM sell this in North America, diesel and all. All we get from them here is a bunch of thirsty monsters.
matt :DDDD
Seems like he tried to convince people not to buy SUVs .
He said 'upmarket' and 'Vauxhall' in the same video! LMFAO...
МММ - 2011
Perhaps Vauxhall will get better now Peugeot have Vauxhall
what you on about?
Vauxhall are 100x better than Peugeot, Vauxhall were in top 10 most reliable and they sold way better than Peugeots, Vauxhall was also top 3 best selling car brands in the UK. Topgear also said they're the only car manufacturers who do not make ugly cars, Jeremy Clarkson said the Zafira Tourer is one of his favourite cars. Vauxhall had Lotus Carlton which was the fastest sedan in the world, the Zafira A which was first sports MPV and also the fastest MPV, with the fastest Zafira with 611BHP(Mad Zaf), they had the fastest street legal car in the UK which was the Vauxhall Victor(Red Victor 3). Go watch episode of Peugeot on TopGears channel and see 'Peugeot' quality.
???? Where did I mention Vauxhall? What does Vauxhall have to do with Hyundai?
Opel
in England it's called vauxhall
