Bought this car second hand on ebay.I hire one when im on holiday and like the drive so decided to take the plunge as a second car as two grand urchins have arrived on the scene.First impression of the one i bought wasnt great although having a well equiped garage and am quite handy with a spanner i know no fear when it comes to taking on a lost cause.
initial repairs on getting it home(300 mile drive) were.......
replace ,noisy steering pump,change brake discs,pads and rear shoes(car has done 82000miles.New exhaust and cat.torsion bar bushes .fuel pump(failed day after I bought it)replace blue ???headlight bulbs,regass air con(works fine now),fit new air box (fitted one was like a glued jigsaw puzzle after lpg backfires by previous owner).new alternator.new wheels as two came loose and broke the wheel studs(probably caused by gorilla like tendency by fittes with air guns.The list goes on and on.I recently put it in for an mot and the only real problem I had was that I was unable to get the brakes up to standard.The garage eventually got them up to mot standard and passed it but after searching for info on the net it appears vosa know of the problem and have issued a memo to instuct testers to pass it even if the pedal travel is long as long as they work ok and there is still some reserve travel. Anyone thinking of buying one can make it a feasable buy as long as they either a.have money to burn(ie rich) b.have a knack with a spanner or have a pal who is good with a spanner and has a masochistic tendency.Changing the thee rear spark plugs is also impossible unles you are also quite bendy.The other saving grace with these cars are that part for them (new) are available for much less than you would expect or are led to believe buy some owners.....new exhaust 60 pounds,new cat 102 pounds.New alternator 40 pounds(also fits my xj8....bonus)All common part available on ebay brand new from businees sellers.Would I recomend one to a friend ,not if I want to keep them.Would I part with mine,no.Not the greatest buy for a 1998 lpg converted for £1800 but I like it and appart from my xj8 I cant find a comfotable people mover with air con ,cruise ,heated seats et on a truck drivers budget so i will persevere.

I bought a new Grand Caravan in the US (LHD) and shipped it over.

After 16 years the only new bits are: 3 batteries, 2 sets of tyres, 2 fuses, 1 valve in the heating system and things like spark plugs and windscreen wipers. It still has the original exhaust.

I just bought another 1 in the USA and it will arrive in the UK next month.

It has only been used for long-distance runs (we have a Mini for around town) and the furthest it has been drive in a day was 1,000 miles (Paris to Bratislava)

T ...

I own a 2006 Chrysler Grand Voyager SE Vision Series. its the most amazing car ive ever driven, i was reluctant about getting a chrysler becasue i to have heard about little things going wrong. But for a people mover, people look at my car and gasp, it has an awesome grill and exterior finish, not to mention the inside, my goodness, the vision series is packed out with dvd players, rear sensing parkers, and overhear entertainment console. I love it. It does take alot of fuel on small trips down ...

Chrysler Grand voyager 3.3v6 auto petrol. Lovely car to own and drive and also nice looking with a touch of class. However, has many faults which when you get one thing solved another just occurs. First my aircon compressor packed up as the compressor clutch seized resulting in a new compressor being fitted. (360gbp) The clock spring went in the steering wheel which luckily was a warrenty job and total cost covered by the dealer. Now I have the alarm problem since we have had terrential rain for ...

I've owned this p reg for 7yrs and have generally been happy but for a few problems that seem common to this vehicle (I run a garage, so I've driven/worked on a few). Spongy brakes and soppy suspension detract from what would otherwise be a great car to drive, why are USA built cars not modified for UK roads? best point is that you can fill the seating space and still have room for the shopping and prams etc, this is just as well because removing the seats is very heavy work. by far the biggest ...

What a car! Before I got this Chrysler Grand Voyager 3.3 V6 LE, I've had all makes & models & this is the only car I would 100% recommend. Engine purrs & the drive is excellent. Powerful 3.3 engine copes with any terrain thrown at it easily. If you like a decent sound system this car has it you can really pump it up on this system. Great size when all seats are taken out, it's like a good looking van.
Petrol consumption not as bad as I was told & my insurance was same as having ...

Here is something to consider. You can pick one of these cars up with a luxury and performance you might only find in a car £4000 - £6000 more in price.

£4000 - £6000 can buy you a heck of a lot of fuel and it can compensate for the poor economy. £1000 is £20 per week for 12 months, so this can offset the MPG big time.

If something big goes wrong on these cars, it can be a disaster. If you have no warranty or comeback of any kind, you may find a garage b ...

I bought the second hand Chrysler Grand Voyager 3.3 V6 LE a year ago. It is one of the best MPV. I like its performance and internal design. The security system is great. The only drawback is the fuel consumption but when I had my car converted to LPG system, it just works perfectly.

I would easily recommend this vehicle to anyone. I wish I could afford the new model with even better use of space on the inside. Go on! Spoil yourself. Get a Grand Voyager.

I bought this Chrysler Grand Voyager 3.3 V6 LE brand new for business purposes as I did not want to inherit someone elses problems. Big mistake Chrysler are a shocking company to deal with. Never again shall I buy brand new. I had an old P reg Voyager before I bought this shed I am driving and wish to God I had kept it.
The P reg cost me £6,500 the thing I have just now £35,500 plus all the lost earnings whilst it was off the road for repairs

It is hard to appreciate another car after owning a Chrysler Grand Voyager. I love the power of the 3.3 litre engine and the sliding doors are a godsend with kids. Has every mod con you could ever want. Very comfortable and still has a big boot space even when seating to full capacity. I am selling mine as we no longer need a car so large. the new Honda CRV doesn't even come close, and isn't that much cheaper to run

My people carrier is a 1998 Chrysler Grand Voyager 3.3 V6 LE (159k on clock). I have had it 5 years, and still love to drive it. It has all you will ever need whilst you have a family to move, the BEST MPV on the market in my opinion, and I did try a lot before the Voyager. I have kept up with and surprised a few boy racers when needed, (when the child in me kicked in!) However I am looking to replace it as the kids have grown up now. I paid a little over 10k for it second hand, and cannot hon ...

Where do I start - the dealers are appalling - the product is appalling.

In the 8 months I owned my Chrysler Grand Voyager 3.3 V6 LE People Carrier from new - it was unreliable, uncomfortable and expensive to run. Cheap plastics that fall off or snap; dealers who cannot repair it - won't lend you a car and to top it off, build the thing with an air intake behind the front wheel, thus sucking in water from the road and blowing the engine!

Then the dealer says it has happened to so many (due ...

I bought my Grand Voyager in 2002, second hand with a "full service history" all stamped by Chrysler main dealers. This was not worth the paper it was printed on. Within 5 months a belt tensioner snapped, thus smashing the radiator assembly, [whats that?] and when took for repair was told both cylinder head gaskets were leaking and advised to repair them while it was in dock. Cost £2,041, then my drivers airbag light came on, my horn stopped working and my cruise control stopped working, I ...
