What this means if you are buying a 2008 Grand Voyager
The 2008 is a weaker year for this model, passing 2 points less often than the Chrysler-Jeep Grand Voyager average.

What an 18-year-old car fails on
A 2008 car is 18 years old now, and age drives the failure mix more than the badge does. Across all cars tested, these are the categories that actually cause failures:
- Lights and electrical: 10.36% of all cars tested
- Suspension: 8.65% of all cars tested
- Tyres: 6.23% of all cars tested
- Brakes: 6.1% of all cars tested
- Visibility: wipers, washers, glass: 4.65% of all cars tested
- Body, chassis and structure: 3.18% of all cars tested
That is high mileage, so timing belts, clutches, suspension bushes and corrosion are the items worth budgeting for rather than the MOT itself. On a 2008 Chrysler-Jeep Grand Voyager the average at test was 121,967 miles, so treat anything far above that as a car that has worked harder than its peers, and anything far below as one worth checking for the faults that come from standing still.
2008 is the strongest year on record for this model at 58.9%, ahead of every other year we hold data for.
