About A Post
The posts in a vehicle are the almost vertical structural pillars that support the window, door and roof area of a car and connect the roof of the vehicle with the base of the frame. These supporting posts are labelled A post, B post and C post. In larger cars there is also a D Post.
Usually steel or alumnium, the posts in a car are solid structures, which are welded at one end to the car's frame and at the other to the roof panel and are positioned between the windows or doors. The Zafira Vauxhall A post is the pillar at the front end of the car, supporting the windscreen and front door/window. The specific design of the A post will vary depending on the design of the car. Some A posts have been manufactured to be slimmer and tapered to help improve the driver's line of sight. The A post on the car interior is usually upholstered with cloth, leather or suede to match the rest of the car's interior design.
Supporting the vehicle's roof and door, the Zafira Vauxhall A post plays an important role structurally in the overall safety of the car and its occupants. The A posts have a vital role to play in a collision by adding structure to and protecting the passenger area of the car, preventing it from crumpling, while absorbing some of the impact of a side collision.
A common reason for A post replacement is damage received in an accident. Buying a new Zafira Vauxhall A post will give you a part that's compatible with the make and model of your vehicle, ensuring this important structural body part can perform properly.
Vauxhall Zafira trivia
- A turbocharged Zafira was unveiled in 2001 and was quickly recognised as the fastest minivan in Europe. The Zafira OPC could easily get from 0-62mph in 8.2 seconds.
- There was a Zafira facelift in 2016, with new features including LED head and tail lights and stereo options. The front of the car was restyled, too, so that it more closely resembled the look of the Vauxhall Astra hatchback.
- If you buy a Zafira today, you get the option of three different engine types. Customers can choose from the 1.4-litre turbocharged petrol engine, the 1.6-litre diesel, and the 2.0-litre diesel. All three come with manual gears, but you do have the option of an automatic if you opt for one of the two bigger engine types.
- One of the members of pop band Hear' Say almost died in a Zafira! Danny Foster narrowly escaped injury when the car was engulfed in flames.
- Welsh actor Griff Rhys Jones was the face of the adverts for the first Zafira, but he was eventually dismissed from the role. The advert for the VX220 was repeatedly voted the worst ad of the year.
