Many years ago, Mrs. KW was on an episode of some used car programme which featured a PT Cruiser, Honda Jazz and a Hyundai Coupe. (She was in the market for an MX 5 so go figure). ::)

Anyway, to stop me dying of boredom while filming they gave me the keys to each of the cars to go and rag around Manchester. Suffice it to say that the Hyundai Coupe was by far the best car of the line-up and the only one I would have taken away if they gave it to me.

The PT Cruiser looked impressive initially, as it had all the bells and whistles. Then I noticed the build quality. Then I started the nasty gruff little 4 pot. Then I drove off and made it actually do some work. Then I tried to negotiate a bend. As it no longer appeals to fashion victims, it isn't going to appeal to anybody. ;D

Yeah they are rare.

I always liked the crossfire

Same here. Been very tempted as they tend to be quite cheap.

A bit odd looking, but with some appeal - a bit like me  ;D

While it's not my cup of java by any stretch I do believe the PT Cruiser has quite an active owners club.
