Opel (Vauxhall) Zafira Tourer Camper
The Vauxhall / Opel Zafira Tourer is one of the more compact MPVs – close to a Ford S-Max or the VW Touran in terms of size and luxury (only the Tourer, the older Zafira is even smaller and less luxurious). Its rear seats fold flat (newer models), opening up a spacious boot that’s good enough for sleeping two people.
This car’s boot is 184 cm long ⤢, 90 cm tall ↕, and 106 cm wide ↔.
NimbleCamper rating: 2.8/5
