Advantages: A nice looking car - presents a good image Disadvantages: Cost of Servicing and parts
items" has become seized and must be replaced. If you have your car serviced regularly, get them to lift out the injectors to make sure they are OK, it only takes 20 mins but could save you a fortune!!!!
SOmeone asked for more information on the car for this review, although i accept this forum is to help people decide when making the all important purchase, this was really a review on additional things to consider when making the purchase. I have been told today by 2 non-chrysler dealers that these type of problem are becoming quite common on Diesel Voyagers of this age, so with that in mind it is a fantastic car to own for 3 years and up until this issue the best car i have ever owned. ...
Advantages: Spacious, comfortable, good driving position, well equipped Disadvantages: Battery too small, wide for small car parks, hard to remove 3rd row of seats
Had a Grand VoyagerCRD for 5 years and found it spacious, comfortable and very reliable with one exception - the battery. The one fitted was only 45 amp/hour which is insufficient for a car which has so many electrics. A combination of short journeys and electric door/tailgate usage caused me to need a jump-start several times after year2 . Otherise the fuel economy was good at 38mpg on a long run and 34 about town (semi-rural). The heavy bench rear seat was totally impractical though needing 2 strong people to remove and refit.

Overall nice to drive except for the cable operated gears which made it difficult to engage 1st gear and to change down to 2nd. The hand brake, despite being recalled and replaced was very poor. It would benefit from one ...
Advantages: Image,looks good. Disadvantages: Build quality not very good.
I bought this car new for my wife in December 2001 as our previous car was getting a bit long in the tooth ( Nissan Prairie , which was a great car and never let us down) , which is something that cannot be said for the Voyager.
The car came with a 3 year warranty , thankfully ,as we had to use it quite a lot . It has to be mentioned that the dealer who supplied the car ( Bickets of Kilmarnock) were pretty good in that they would pick it up and drop off a courtesy car whenever any work was needing done , which meant we got to drive a P.T cruiser (twice), a Chrysler Neon automatic (once) , a petrol Voyager (twice) , an automatic diesel Voyager (once) and a Cherokee jeep (once), but then we did pay £ 25,000 for the car and expected good service.
Lets start listing the faults: alternator faulty, replaced under ...
