Discover luxury for up to seven people with premium class driving quality, surrounded by style. Inspired by the high-tech luxury of elite high-speed trains, Zafira Tourer redefines attitudes to motorized flexibility.

Athletic and distinctive

From the dramatic boomerang headlights to the elegant rear detailing, the new Vauxhall Zafira Tourer redefines multi-purpose vehicle style. The profile is sleek, sporty and immediately appealing.

Exterior design

The distinctive front styling with boomerang headlights, Vauxhall signature wing running lights, trapezoid grille and slim ‘A’ pillars creates a dynamic, progressive look. The pronounced rake of the windscreen further emphasises the sporting appeal of the car.

From the side the streamlined, aerodynamic lines lend the Vauxhall Zafira Tourer a silhouette reminiscent of the high-speed trains that inspired the design team. The waistline sweeps up, adding sculptural dynamism that is literally underlined by the Vauxhall ‘blade’ motif that also sweeps up towards the ‘D’ pillars.

The wing-shape of the headlights is repeated in the rear lamps, which can be further enhanced by LED technology. The horizontal chrome bar carrying the Vauxhall logo extends into the split light clusters, helping give the Zafira Tourer a broad, sporty stance and adding another premium touch.

Interior design

Inside the Vauxhall Zafira Tourer a combination of increased spaciousness and quality you can see and feel characterises the design. Soft touch and tactile materials, together with well-considered ambient colour combinations make an immediate and long lasting impression.

Newly designed front seats with extra-long travel-rails add to the executive feeling. The fascia, centre console and instruments have been redesigned, adding a natural upgraded feel.

The panoramic windscreen – standard on the Elite model and optional on SRi and SE models – enhances the airy ambience and works perfectly with the full-length glass sunroof. The result is a relaxing, open feeling.

Ambient lighting by spotlights in the door storage space and roof-mounted overhead spots is another up-market feature. This is enhanced by ambient lighting in the doors and FlexConsole rails on some models, adding yet more practicality and convenience. The slim ‘A’ pillars on the front-door windows help with visibility and increase the sense of openness inside the vehicle.

We offer three levels of Service enabling you to choose which service matches your requirements best.

£99.00 Oil Service including 25 point vehicle health check
If you only cover a small mileage per year, but would like the vehicle to be checked over for safety related items and have the engine oil and filter replaced, then this service is ideal.

£149.00 Interim service
If you would like a more thorough service carried out including the replacement of the pollen filter and replacement of the brake fluid but at a cost effective price then the Interim service is recommended.

£249.00 Full Service
If you cover a distance of 10,000 miles a year plus or if the vehicle has not been serviced for some time, we would recommend the full service which includes replacement of the engine oil and filter, pollen filter, brake fluid, engine air filter, and spark plugs. If an MOT is booked at the same time as the Full Service, we will carry out the MOT at half price.

Designed around the driver
On the outside, the steeply raked deep windscreen and low bonnet line are designed to give exceptional visibility. Generous, panoramic wing-mirrors with integrated indicator-repeaters provide outstanding rear vision. The clear-glass wrap-around headlight clusters are functional and efficient, the rear light clusters are high mounted to avoid damage, and the optional front fog lights are protectively recessed.

Of course, you won’t notice one of New Combo’s most impressive features until you actually get in and drive the vehicle. The innovative bi-link independent rear suspension we’ve used offers such superb ride comfort that you’ll get the best possible ride quality and handling – even when you’re hauling heavy loads.

We’ve also prioritised driver comfort and convenience inside New Combo. The stylish dashboard is functional and uncluttered, you’ll be able to adjust the steering wheel for rake and reach and all of the minor controls are intuitively designed and within easy reach. The front seats are deeply contoured for your extra comfort on those long days, and there are generous heating and ventilation outlets. Overall, we’ve used extra-durable materials to create a driver’s cabin that is ergonomic, robust and hard-wearing.

In terms of convenience and storage, New Combo will lead the field with spacious door pockets, dashboard storage and a lockable glove box. The Sportive model will also feature an overhead storage shelf in the cabin. Standard seat trim will be Cube Black cloth or you’ll be able to choose Vinyl Black, free-of-charge.

The Vauxhall new convertible, due to hit the market in 2013, will be based on our compact vehicle architecture, currently the basis for the New Astra, the Astra Sports Tourer and the upcoming Astra GTC.

Vauxhall CEO Nick Reilly, announcing the production of the new convertible, explained: "The new convertible will be a great addition to our product line-up”, continuing a tradition of legendary and much-loved Vauxhall cabrios “with its sleek and elegant design”.

Further details, such as name, pricing structure and equipment, will be announced closer to the launch. Watch this space!

With its progressive and dynamic coupé design, the Vauxhall Astra GTC distinctively stands out of the crowd. Read more about the unique Astra GTC exterior and interior design.

The Vauxhall Astra GTC takes the sporting identity of the Vauxhall Astra to a new level. And its dynamic coupé styling is immediately appealing.

From the front the signature chrome bar, with aerodynamically fine-tuned front bumper and deep reaching trapezoid grille, creates a forceful presence. It’s underlined by the signature daytime running lights and the smoothly profiled wrap-around headlight clusters.

Flared wheel arches over 18-inch wheels (standard, or choose the striking 19-inch or 20-inch alternatives), and a smoothly profiled sill-moulding form a solid basis for the side styling, while highlighting the car’s ‘muscular’ appearance. The side windows with chrome surrounding signal high quality and attention to detail.

From the back the strong shoulder line, which forms the upper line of the rear light clusters, gives a strong, dynamic impression, while signature light elements, such as the LED tail lamps make the Vauxhall Astra GTC unmissable at night.

The energy and sporting flair of the exterior continues inside. Choose from two trim levels: Sport and SRi. Both present high quality ambience, together with a feeling of roominess.

The Astra GTC Sport features a black cloth interior, or choose from black or red in the SRi. A soft Nappa leather interior with silver stitching and piping is available with the ergonomic sports seat.

While the Vauxhall Astra GTC is a true-blooded sports coupé, it is designed for real everyday use. Easy Entry makes getting in and out of the rear seats simple. And as well as the excellent driver and passenger storage features already familiar from the Astra 5-door, for further convenience 60/40-split rear seats and load-through are standard.

Electrifying looks

Sculptural artistry and precision – the Vauxhall Ampera’s sleek aerodynamics contribute to tailpipe emission-free battery powered driving. No sacrifices for driver or passengers: the Ampera offers the space, comfort, and convenience of a modern car with five doors, four seats and a storage capacity of 300 litres.

The art of aerodynamics

Sporty aerodynamics help maximise the driving range. The airflow around the fascia and outside mirrors has been optimised; the rear has a specifically designed spoiler and clean separation features.

Lightweight materials are used such as clear polycarbonate covers on the front grille and the disk inserts on the 17-inch, five-spoke sport alloy wheels. These help to reduce aerodynamic drag in critical airflow areas.

Sculptural forms and expressive lines

Dramatic, boomerang-like headlights seamlessly integrate with the lower fog lights. The car has a dynamic low stance seen most prominently in the front and tail. The bold new Vauxhall Griffin logo is emblazoned on the front grill and the chrome bar across the back.

Vertical slots in the outboard edges of the rear bumper give the car a low sporty look. Its unique Pearl White Diamond colour with matching rocker panels and rear bumper underline the dynamic appeal of the car.

Uncompromised everyday driving comfort

New high quality and high-tech materials set the tone inside the Vauxhall Ampera. It has good all-around vision, a driver-focused cockpit, ample space, head and legroom for 4-adults and a basic luggage volume of over 300 litres.

The interior décor features a unique jetbblack design combined with Spice Red accents and Dark Argent Metallic paint on the instrument panel’s centre stack.

The doors’ design picks up on the car’s electric nature through the use of iconic themes. With an integrated shifter, two information displays and touch-sensitive infotainment centre, the Ampera delivers an all-electronic user experience.

The Vauxhall Flextreme is more than a demonstration of our commitment to the latest green technology. It is proof that the future can be stylish as well as practical.

The Flextreme body’s key characteristics highlight the new elements of Vauxhall design language: more sculpted surfacing moulding and clear style elements such as narrow, boomerang-shaped lights and a sloping swage line in the side graphics. The Flextreme has also been designed following the motto of technological efficiency: vehicle weight and aerodynamics are optimised using advanced materials and simulation technology.

The bottom edge of the windshield has been pulled forward, so the hood with its characteristic crease is very short. The integrated power socket in the cowl panel allows the car to be charged at any mains supply.

A look at the front of the car quickly reveals that the front grille and rims are covered by a lightweight transparent trim, which is made from polycarbonate to improve aerodynamics while maintaining visual aesthetics. The same is true for the special light alloy wheels. Like the wheel design, the large boomerang-like curved front light units are visually deceptive.

From the rear the centre-opening, butterfly doors form the most immediate feature. Also the relief of the blade motif is carried around the whole curvature of the back. The unique rear lamp clusters with wing lights are virtually invisible until lit; they also wrap around to give even more sense of symmetry.

Just like all the other windows and a large part of the roof, the windshield is made of especially light polycarbonate. The Flextreme’s panoramic windshield provides a light and spacious interior ambience and stretches over most of the roof, which is reinforced by a spine-like composite structure that extends all the way to the rear floor.
