2013 Chrysler Grand Voyager 2.8L Diesel · MU51 CWA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT test on 30 September 2025 at 271,704 miles. The maintenance trend shows a stable but reactive pattern, as the vehicle consistently undergoes failures immediately before successful passes. In both 2024 and 2025, the car failed the test only to pass a few days later after repairs were made. This suggests that the previous owner addresses specific mechanical faults only when necessitated by the legal road test requirement, rather than following a preventative maintenance schedule. The mileage profile is exceptionally high for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 21,000 miles per year. Between September 2023 and September 2025, the Voyager covered 56,165 miles, indicating heavy long-distance use or constant commercial application. This rate of accumulation puts significant strain on the drivetrain components, gearbox, and heavy suspension assembly. The consistent annual interval between tests confirms the vehicle is used regularly rather than sitting for long periods, but the high mileage increases the likelihood of fatigue in rubber components and accelerated wear on bushings. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection focusing on the suspension and chassis integrity. Given the high mileage and the nature of the vehicle, check for worn control arm bushes, leaking shock absorbers, and sagging springs which often fail under heavy loads. The record does not list structural advisories, but the age and mileage demand a close look for corrosion on the sills and rear mounting points. You should also inspect the braking system for binding calipers or thin discs, as the reactive repair history suggests that components are pushed to their absolute limit before replacement.
