States that the Meriva and Zafira VXR do not have a switch for the Traction Control because the company fears product liability claims.
Next weeks Autocar will have a test of the Zafira VXR round Brands Hatch

The "EPS" system in the Zafira, which appears to monitor vehicle movements, under and over steer etc and then automaticlly brakes individual wheels etc, is what I assume is referred to as the "traction control" ?. If so then see below.
EPS can be disabled for higher performance driving (see page 181 of the Zafira VXR handbook) by holding in the sports button for four seconds, thus disabling EPS, both a written & visual display then shown on dashboard.
EPS can be reactivated by depressing the sports button again.
Makes the handling a lot more exciting

Or have I got it all wrong again !!!!!!!!!!!!
