Sometimes, the unlikeliest flavours pair together to produce surprisingly delicious results. Strawberries and balsamic vinegar. Pineapple on pizza. (Fail of the Century will hear no dissent against pineapple on pizza. It is one of the all time great flavour combinations, and anyone who cares to state otherwise is a culinary deviant.)
And the Zafira VXR was indeed an unlikely flavour pairing. Even by the unsporty standards of Noughties MPVs, the regular Zafira was about as unsporty as they come – an admirably practical, glamour-free receptacle for ferrying your bogey riddled, lice infested offspring around the suburbs. FOTC means this as a compliment.
