2011 Chrysler GRD Voyager Touring CRD A 2.8L Diesel · NL11 SFZ

This vehicle has covered over 200,000 miles in 15 years, which is a high-usage profile that has clearly taken a toll on its mechanical health. The MOT history reveals a concerning trend of worsening neglect, particularly regarding the suspension, braking system, and general maintenance of safety-critical components. The most recent MOT in February 2026 shows that the vehicle is in a state of rapid deterioration. While it eventually passed, it did so with several lingering issues, including a rattling exhaust heat shield, an oil leak, and corroded rear shock absorbers. The failure just days prior to the pass highlighted severe safety risks, such as excessively worn brake pads, binding brakes, and a failed tyre, which suggests that the vehicle was being driven in an unsafe condition until the point of testing. There is a clear, recurring pattern of deferred maintenance. Issues such as the deteriorating registration plates, track rod end dust cover damage, and shock absorber corrosion have been flagged repeatedly over multiple years without being permanently rectified. The fact that the vehicle passed with missing seats and unresolved corrosion suggests a pattern of "patching up" the car just enough to secure a certificate rather than maintaining it to a high standard. The high mileage combined with the recent mechanical failures indicates that the drivetrain and chassis have been subjected to heavy wear. Given the age and the volume of advisories, you should expect that major components like the suspension, steering joints, and braking system are near the end of their service life.
