2008 Chrysler Voyager 2.8L Diesel · CP08 HCJ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on the most recent testing data. The latest MOT conducted on 4 September 2023 at 126,976 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects. This followed a curious failure just ten days prior on 25 August 2023 at 126,966 miles, though the lack of recorded defects on that failure suggests either an administrative error or an issue rectified immediately before the subsequent test. The mileage pattern indicates low-intensity usage for an eighteen-year-old vehicle. With 126,976 miles recorded, the Chrysler Voyager has averaged approximately 7,000 miles per year, which aligns with typical light use patterns. However, the data shows a significant period of inactivity between the September 2022 test at 126,923 miles and the August 2023 test, where only 43 miles were covered in nearly a year. This suggests the vehicle may have sat stationary for long periods, which often leads to the degradation of rubber components and fluid integrity despite the low mileage. Given the clean history in the final tests, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components prone to age-related decay. Prioritize a check for structural corrosion along the sills and wheel arches, as rust is a common failure point for this era. Additionally inspect the brake system for seized calipers or perished hoses and examine the suspension bushes for cracks, as long periods of standing can cause these materials to lose elasticity. Verify that the tyres show no signs of sidewalling cracking even if tread depth remains sufficient.
