Our Verdict
Approach this 2005 Chrysler Voyager with strong caution due to repeated MOT failures and unresolved steering and exhaust faults. The most recent 2025 test shows a failure for exhaust gas leak and emissions, only cleared the next day with no recorded rectification detail.
Given the 2025-09-29 failure for a major exhaust gas leak and hydrocarbon exceedance, and the immediate pass on 2025-09-30, insist on evidence of the repair (receipts or before/after inspection) before purchase, as the rapid re-test suggests a temporary fix. The steering rack inner joint play flagged on both 2024 and 2025 tests is a safety-related item; have an independent mechanic assess the rack and linkages. Request full service history to confirm timing belt, suspension, and brake pipe maintenance, as corroded brake pipes were advised in 2024.
As a 2429cc petrol people carrier, the Voyager will return modest fuel economy, likely under 30 mpg in mixed use, and road tax for a 2005 petrol of this size falls in higher CO2 bands (approx £360-£400 annually pre-April 2025 rates). Insurance group is typically mid-to-high for large MPVs; budget for above-average maintenance given shock misting, coil spring corrosion, and exhaust faults seen in the MOT data. Estimated annual running cost including fuel, tax, insurance, and typical upkeep is £1,400-£1,800.
Inspect the exhaust system closely for leaks, especially central and rear sections, following the 2025 major gas leak and 2023 minor leak advisories; verify emissions are stable. Check the steering rack inner joints for play (noted offside in 2024 and 2025) and confirm no excessive movement at the wheels. Examine front shock absorbers for oil misting (both sides in 2025), tyre edges for wear (nearside front close to limit in 2025), and brake pipes for corrosion (rear noted in 2024); also test all stop, registration, and headlamp lenses for the faults logged.
This black 2005 Chrysler Voyager (YT55ACJ) shows 101,053 miles on its latest 2025 MOT, which is moderate for a 20-year-old people carrier. The MOT history reveals four tests since 2023 with two failures, including a 2025 exhaust gas leak and emissions exceedance plus steering rack play noted in 2024 and 2025. No aggregate model reliability data is available, so assessment relies solely on this vehicle's recorded history, which suggests ageing mechanical and corrosion issues.
No aggregate MOT reliability data is available for the Chrysler Voyager, so this guide is based only on the individual vehicle's recorded history.
