OK, I'm still on my car search!

Dh is now hot on this one - anyone got one? What do you like/dislike about it?

What's the difference between Voyager and Grand Voyager??

TIA

I'd rather drive a Lada than a Chrysler now. Grin

But seriously - as for other similar cars, the Toyota Previa has an excellent reliability record. Have a look at one of those and see what you think before committing yourself. The Chrysler does come with a ton of fancy stuff, auto tailgates and what-have-you-not, but tbh half of it you don't need/is more along the lines of 'toy'.

agh yes... my old families was VERY unrelaible as well... i think they had a HUGE problem with the brakes (or something else VERY essential) a couple of times (before it was a year old). It was ent back for repair but the problem reoccured a couple of times.... including up a mountain when skiing in France Shock

They LOVED the car design but couldnt trust the car.... it was swapped for a land rover discovery

no probs with my battery, maybe it is bigger being fron the USA, but had to wait a month for a new gear box, had to come from USA, thankfully chrysler france paid for our hire car while waiting after a lttle persuasion. And had Rac cover through insurance thankfully. Rac were fab rang chrysler every 2 days to chase them. Know of someone else here who had diesel turbo who have been waiting 2 months for a new gear box. I have heard since that the reliability is crap. But love my gv!!!!

Didn't drive it - apparently you have to book but I was annoyed because I emailed them 3 days ago and nobody replied. I did complain but they still wouldn't take us out in it. Just sat in it, had a go in all the seats and asked lots of questions. Deffo sold on it so it's just a case of waiting till our house sale goes through and then finding one we want. Cant' wait though!!
