I use my neck and my eyes, the rear view mirror, the wing mirrors, reflections in the windows of shops and my brain. Frankly if you can't park without a reversing camera, then get off the bloody road! I realise you probably feel the same Owen.
my first year of driving, I had an MPV, Zafira A and I would drop and pick my sister from school, I had to to parallel park in close spots all the time so if you do it often its not crucial to have, I wouldn't mind having sensors though
2:50 Oh! what a princes... it's a Review so you we want to see back seats in action. I was watching this video only to see back seats... unfortunately cinderella doesn't want to loose her shoe there... You've said it's "Britains favourite 7-seater" but you don't even show seats number 6 and 7 how they look like when someone is there!!! WTF?
Is something odd happening with Carbuyer videos? There are several which don`t appear in my subscription (like the this one) and they also don`t appear in the list of videos on the main "Videos" page but they do appear on the Carbuyer homepage.
Why would you do a car review and then say " I'm not even going to TRY to get in the back seats". Utter nonsense Also on a separate note, Vauxhall seem years off the pace with their products at the moment.
I got the elite 1.4 Turbo back in 2017 with a panoramic front windscreen and sunroof fitted from the factory including leather seats due to my disabled daughter not liking dark and small spaces so more sky the better you could even watch planes fly over. To be honest, a great vehicle lots of space the seats are really good for long-distance, in fact, cured my lower back problem over 6 months. One thing I did like the rear seats as they folded away into the floor out of sight. I remember having a Ford Galaxy once and you had to take the seats out if you wanted space. You can actually get into the rear seats from the boot so no climbing from the side door if you wish. Loads of legroom also sitting in the middle seats and they are easy to fold if you want to go the tip. Ok, the not so good as in the video small glove compartment the only thing you can fit in there is the car manual yes that's even on the small size and a disabled badge and some tissues. Also, the engine even though a Turbo can be a bit slow through the lower range. One good thing is from the small glove compartment to the under-seat passenger and driver compartment it's a pull out draw and lots of space there. Also, the Onstar assistance was good including the internet and wifi in the car although this will cease Dec 2020. Never broke down no rattles great around town and on the motorways but my 3 years are up and time to get my next vehicle.
+Carbuyer of course sponsored content like the dacia one has no thumbs up/down number and no comments enabled. well i come here to say goodbye to your channel. best of luck!
Does anyone know if it would work ok having it in six seats not all seven, so like one third row seat up the other third row seat down? I don't really want to loose all my boot space to a seat that no one would really be sat in...
No car says 'Daddywagon' more than this car, it doesn't matter how much it is refreshed ; driving one is the automotive equivalent of being neutered. Next time you see a man driving one of these look at his face it will say 'I had dreams once, I had plans, I wanted to see the world... Now I'm off to Homebase for the tenth time this week'
The way Vauxhall have spec'ed these cars makes no sense, I took a test drive in the SRi 2.0 165 & it went really well, but like she said, the interior is lacking storage, this revamp is also missing the upper glove box that the first Zafira Tourer had. The centre armrest didn't have a storage space under it, it just moved backwards and forwards. The rearmost seats are next to pointless for anyone other than really small children, I honestly think you'd have to move the middle seats forwards to give anyone in the 3rd row space for their legs. I'm not a fan of the face-lift either, it looks older than the model it replaced.
Can't even get 3 child seats across the back, probably because it's based on the Astra which is a small car. Just buy a proper Mpv if you're going to buy one, like the Alhambra or Galaxy which actually has space and way more practical.
David Richards smax over priced. Who has 3 iso fixs unless really you have triplets. Also not all large isp fix bases fit on smax such as seats that turn 360 degrees. Also 1.6 is slow compared to zafira. Yet same mpg.
I didn't find this very helpful. It was just a personal opinion, and not objective enough. No need to tell us all about how difficult the rear doors are with children. Good grief. The part of the market that is worried about that will figure it out for themselves. However I will say it will never be as difficult as loading two infants, a pushchair and a weeks shopping onto the 39B bus, as my mother did. What is wrong with mothers today anyway? Cars have to be designed around them, they get special spaces for 'children up to 12? I'm really over it. So now I will watch the review in Spanish and probably learn more! Hasta la vista....
I've had my first gen Zafira Tourer for four years, and it's been more reliable than both a BMW Mini Cooper S, and a VW Golf mk5. It's only needed two front tyres, and new pads. It's not a dream car, but it carts the family and all the crap around pretty well.

Saying standard cars have isofix points nowadays is like saying cars have windows, they are pretty standard features
a reversing camera is crucial..... well people carriers have managed for decades so far without them??
Owen Richards yes but they are not idiot proof

Nobody needs a reversing camera 😂 If you have to rely on a reverse camera to reverse, should you really be driving?
A reversing camera is an option
You didn't review the most crucial part of the car!!! The third row of seats!
because realistically nobody would be small enough to fit in the 3rd row only really small children.
she's saying that they are utterly useless.
scottishfanta marcoauto the water
David Richards Fair enough but my mum has the second generation from 2009 and it would've been good to see if there is less or more room!
+scottishfanta they only Mpvs which are worth looking at the rear seats are large Mpvs as they actually have space like the Ford Galaxy.
thank you for reviewing the third row of seats !

Vauxhall... Rest In Pieces baby babey.

Gallopingclap are you actually serious? I think you're talking bs
Gallopingclap Why bother? This car is just a facelift. Interior space is going to be identical as the pre facelift model.
The new Astra looks decent to be fair, but this Zafira, the Adam and the mokka x are not good at all.
Philip Scott in that case why do a new review at all???
Gallopingclap They have to upload something onto their channel, even if it is rubbish.
Why not fold the rear seats down?
Looks nice I did a 3 day test drive but no wasn't for me I went for the VW Touran
Tell me why pls i am better both of those cars thanks
comments and like dislikes not enabled in the sponsored dacia duster video i have a feeling why
Will Peugeot keep it or dump it🤔
I could've sworn this video was uploaded before
lol onstar has been out in the states for over 10 years

Thanks for your review
Touch screens are a nightmare when driving give me buttons anyday
2 good things with Zafira over 10ys: material quality, rust free chassis.
Why is the glovebox tiny, and if it's because of the fuse box, why can't they move it over the the other side for right hand drive?
same reason as you won't adopt left hand drive.
Unfortunately its not much bigger on Opel. For MPV new Zafira seems to be severely lacking storage space.

Yes you can have that. All seats are independent.
1.4 turbo that has the power of 1.8 normal aspirated cars

Chaka Whyte ha ha ha :)
Your mindset makes me pity you, poor person
Good versatile car, cheap to maintain and run which is essential when you can't spend all your money on mods for a hot hatch.
😭😭😭😭😭😭
Does it come with the optional Fire heater.
Screw OnStar, that button should activate an emergency sprinkler system instead.

why does she call the zafira a big car, it's a small mpv, the Galaxy is a large mpv and there is a massive difference in size.
interceptor1986 the galaxy is the best 7 seater period
Oh. I thought they stop making zafiras
台灣沒進這部車可惜啊!
Zafira 10 year owners review -
ua-cam.com/video/EW2Fe0gHUm8/v-deo.html
Hello Thank You very much for your presentation. See You on the next Car Presentation videos.
Actually there are a choice of 2 petrol engines for this car a 1.4 turbo and a 1.8
Will never buy a Vauxhall again, not after the way they treated their customers over the car fire debacle; nothing but contempt. Lesson learnt!
hopefully peugeot will do the same to vauxhall what vauxhall did to saab
TheCitroenman1 Vauxhall didn't own Saab GM (General Motors) owned them
Can't even get 3 child seats across the back, probably because it's based on the Astra which is a small car. Just buy a proper Mpv if you're going to buy one, like the Alhambra or Galaxy which actually has space and way more practical.
David Richards smax over priced. Who has 3 iso fixs unless really you have triplets. Also not all large isp fix bases fit on smax such as seats that turn 360 degrees. Also 1.6 is slow compared to zafira. Yet same mpg.
last facelift before the Zafira gets axed for good.
what is it with Vauxhall and their trim levels ?, confusing and clueless, kia do it so much better
Nigel Old & Grey who buys a KIA?
livc444111 Smarter people than those who buy garbage Vauxhalls, that's who.
Very cool
You didn't even properly review the 2nd row of seats
Good video
looks like it was designed in 2005
yamcha111 dump
Turbo? Without turbo be ok..

The Astra is a step forward this is ugly and the interior is miles behind fords smax and galaxy and vws touran and sharan .
It will set on fire it is so ugly
🥊📦🔥🔥🔥
Great car!
OUT DATED
👍👌
Be careful it doesn't self implode, modern vauxhalls are the nastiest, cheapest feeling crap on the roads
Alex Mitchell I don't agree the insignia is a nice car

So not true
I hate this car !!!!!!!
