    Depends whether you want to be the first keeper or not.
    I'm not overly bothered - I just want to get a new Zafira for the £11k ballpark that has been posted here rather than what I find if I go to vauxhall.co.uk...

    How far away are yo from the dealers I posted, looks like they've got them in Watford?

    2 hours drive from Watford.
    Don't live that way any more but will be close to Wilsons (that Car 54 posted about) on Saturday. Though not really with much time to spare to buy a car!

    Evans Halshaw have possibly got them, which are a bit more convenient than the others.

    I think my first port of call is to contact the local dealer and see if they've got them or can get them... I just don't quite know what I'm asking for when I phone.
    "Hello, have you got any of those Zafiras that they're posting about on MSE?" Doesn't quite work for me!
  • Then ask them if they have stocks or can get hold of a zafira. If they can discuss a price and inform them you can get one for 11 grand. If they can't price match then you'll know that you'll have to travel.

    Go on the Vauxhall website, and search for your nearest dealer, see if they have any offers. If not, try the next nearest. And so on.

    There still appears to be one or two still advertising online such as Wilsons who have the 1.8 pre-registered at £10495.
    They appear to be located in Epsom


    .Its just a case of trawling through the Vauxhall dealers to find one although by now your choice of colour will be very limited.

    Just ask if they have any pre-registered new zafiras for around £10,000.

    Wilsons don't have any automatics.
    I think it's going to be a case of phoning quite a few...

    Northern Motors don't have automatics, either.
    According to the guy I spoke to they are like gold dust.

    Grrr. Thought this was sounding too good to be true.

    Yeah. If you'd told us you were looking for an auto the advice might have been different ...

    As above.... automatics are pretty scarce at the best of times so the chances of finding one at these prices is virtually zilch.
