Thinking of buying a new Zafira Tourer 2.0 diesel automatic. Are the automatics a good unit? Done a search but can't seem to find much info on the auto boxes fitted to the new vauxhalls. I know that they are fully automatic.
Problem with having access to internet is that i get asked by many to solve their problems :( Well at least i learn something on the way :D

    well you wont have the worry of the floating flywheel failing as the auto wont have one. ;)

    Other probably a good enough car, though i know they bumped the prices up significantly for the Tourer when it came out, so would be worthwhile checking for ex lease / ex demo / nearly new cars nationally to get the best price as being a vauxhall used prices wont be strong.

    I would use a car broker such as Drive The Deal on a mainstream car. No point getting one or two grand off at a local dealer with the promise of crappy local service when you can get over £5k off at DTD:

    2.0 CDTi SE Auto + Metallic = £22550 a saving of £5220
