Chrysler - Grand Voyager

A stretched version of the proven Voyager, Grand Voyager is the largest MPV on the market. It's incredibly roomy and well equipped, but thirsty and awkward to manoeuvre around town.

	Unbeatable space for occupants and luggage
	Well built with an excellent reliability record
	High comfort levels, good equipment
	Best suited to broad American streets
	3.3 V6 Auto is very thirsty
	Some doubts about crash safety

If size matters, try putting a Grand Voyager on your drive (it probably won't fit in your garage). Short of a stretch limo, there's no bigger solution to the problem of ferrying a large family plus luggage about.
Grand Voyager's size and thirst are drawbacks. We might be heading towards 51st State status, but our streets and parking spaces are too dinky for this car. And high UK petrol prices mean that the unstressed 3.0 V6 Auto doesn't make sense. There's a 2.5 TD diesel that reduces running costs; but has to work hard and you'll have to settle for a manual gearbox.
Quibbles apart, Grand Voyager is one helluva of a car. It's easy to drive on the open road, although steering responses could be crisper and ride is a little soft. It's extremely comfortable and built to last. It could be safer - Voyager only achieved two NCAP stars.
