Very Practical Urban Vehicle

This is a super little car. Ther interior is deceptively roomy, and it is very practical to handle almost any house hold transportation need. It is great for a retired couple, as the seating arrangement can accomodate almost anything you have to carry. Loading and unloading groceries is easier than a car with a standard trunk, and that little back deck table thingey will keep your valuables out of sight, and makes a great picnic table when traveling. The back seat room is amazing.

We purchased out PT Cruiser new in 2002 to replace an old ford that was about worn out. My wife picked out the car and I didnt care for it much until I had to transport some building material to the house. Although a small looking car I was surprised at the open space it has when the seats were folded down and the amount of weight it would carry. Was almost like an inclosed pick up and still drove very well.

First Year Gremlins Plaque My PT Cruiser

This car is the worst ever owned. Poor mileage (average 16 MPG), poor performance. It stalls when cold. The clutch slipped from day one. The engine has always had a rough idle, and is the loudest ever owned. Paint started flaking after 6 months. Door trim has broken off twice. Drivers seat has been replaced. The clock won't keep time, and every CD played skips. On windshield number 4. They seem to crack from stress. Front windows have came off the track twice. Burns a quart of oil a week.

Very fun and reliable car with excellent features and comfort. This car is fully-loaded and has been very reliable with cost of ownership being quite low. Performance is noticeably impacted by running the air conditioning.

This is a happy car to drive,I have never had a vehcicle I have enjoyed more. It needs better gas milage, it's tight between the door and the seat and I have a "bucking" problem that cannot be solved. Could use a more powerful A/C unit. Love the car, will get another one because it is so easy to get in and out of and I can't believe the room it has.
