PT Cruiser is designed to be extremely versatile. The PT Cruiser’s tall profile contributes to its command-of-the-road seating and flexible interior space. The prefix ‘PT’ stands for ‘personal transportation’, which reflects PT Cruiser’s flexibility and versatility for each individual owner.

To follow up on my last comments; I was in the dealership today to look at their just-arrived 2008 UK-model CRD 2.2 Limited PT Cruiser. I spent at least half an hour going over the vehicle and jotting down the detailed features, so here goes; 17 inch alloys Fuel filler cover is no longer chrome Bodyside mouldings are still chrome Chrome strips on the front grille Chromed exhaust tip Changed rear lettering; "PT Cruiser" on lower left, "Chrysler" above the wings centre; "CRD Limited" on lower right (think the lettering is smaller, still the same characteristic font of course) Door sill plates are black plastic, but with large rectangular brushed metal insert with large bright Chrysler wings logo The seats are now virtually full leather (just a small strip of cloth at the sides of the base) Steering wheel has silver spokes The centre console has a ’hatched’ pattern (dealer called it ’carbon look-alike’) Best I can tell, all the mechanicals are exactly as before.

Bit bothered about Pete Swann’s comments; my dealer simply can’t tell me what will be missing (versus the brochure) from my vehicle when it arrives in two or three weeks. Pretty poor - I’ve seen a few comments on forums that suggest that *no* Chrysler dealers have got up-to-date marketing material and vehicle specs for the 2008 model year PT, Chrysler are concentrating on pushing their ’premium’ vehicles. But I’m going to assume that apart from a few cosmetic things, the car will be substantially as the brochure and Chrysler’s US website describes (otherwise the dealer will find himself with a ’situation’ on his hands). I still think I’m going to enjoy the car immensely, given the style and overall equipment level. As long as I get reliability and good service and warranty work from the dealer, I’ll have made a good decision.

Have purchased the 2008 pt cruiser "Limited" Auto. Disappointed in the lack of promised refinements for this model. No chrome filler cap. No chrome wheels. Running boards are now rubber inserts. Just a new centre stack facia which is quite impressive. Why pay for this model when all the outside refinements are gone?
