In reply to Pesda potato:
I have a zafira and confess to quite liking it despite it's faults. The 7 seats are great for lugging the kids friends around, or extra family members. It's often saved another car on the road.
When the back seats are down (either flat, or folded up against the front seats) the boot is pretty huge, but the rear bench seat is not great. Also, with the seats down there is quite a step between seats and boot. -You could not sleep in the boot without modification (either personal or automobile).
My car is the SRI so it goes OK. The 'sport' button is fun and normally I get 40-50MPG which for a diesel could be better (2006reg , 157K miles), but it does have to push quite a bit of air out of the way when it's moving.
Getting bikes or roofboxes on the roof is a challenge for the short. - you should be able to fit bikes in the back OK.
Repair wise, I think I've spent a bit more fixing it because I got it cheap. New timing belt X2, new fly wheel, several alternators, brake disks tend to warp for some reason, DPF problems initially, EGR problems finally solved by removing it and changing the software.
My biggest gripe is the front roof pillars either side of the windscreen are huge. You can lose a whole car in it, which can make T junctions fun sometimes.
With the anti-diesel furore at the moment, I'm considering a petrol when I trade it in, but do love getting well over 600 miles from the tank on a long run.
