The Chrysler badge is said to resemble a Viking helmet and emphasise a spirit of daring and of exploration. Some believe that they also pay homage to Mercury, the winged Greek deity and universal symbol of speed.The ribbon seal and silver wings first appeared on the radiator shell of the 1924 Chrysler Model B.

Love it - for sheer presence, space, versatility and believe it or not, economy and performance, nothing touches it in this price bracket. Takes a day to get used to the size thing, but it is nimble, quick, tight turning circle and car park friendly despite appearances. Love it.

I went to Texas for 6 weeks and hired a PT Cruiser, I was hoping for a Focus or similar, I hated the Cruisers styling, but after driving it I was impressed by the comfort and equipment, loads of room and nice to drive, nothing went wrong and the economy was good, performance ok, smooth auto, doors and boot that close well without slamming, I have since sold my Toyota Corolla, uncomfortable, bad handling, poor auto, silly niggling faults, the PT cruiser is much nicer, but I bought a 3 series BMW, everything about it is better than Toyota, looks beat the Cruiser.

Purchased my "Silver Pearlescent with colour coded bumpers!" five weeks ago. So far, for the price I paid, I have no real issues; although I do agree the turning circle is pretty poor. However, comfort, space and style make up for its short- comings. Mine is a 2002 2.0 manual, any hints on deceleration when changing gear?

Rented a diesel manual for a long weekend, which included two separate motorway journeys totalling 600 miles and two local journeys of 20 miles each way with three adults in the car, and two 90 year olds - for the local journeys. This car was effortless on the motorway. It lacks punch for sudden overtaking opportunities but was seamless when overtaking manoeuveres were planned. Once in the groove at a high cruising speed it was quiet and relaxing. Cruise control was a bonus. One passenger remarked on the fact that when approaching other vehicles on the motorway they often simply moved out of the way - I believe this was purely down to frontal styling and sheer ’presence’. rather than any intimidation on my part. My passengers were impressed with the comfort and ride quality. I would say that on this model an autobox would have suited the cars driving style, which promotes a leisurely type of driving. The interior is very roomy and seems to have been styled for the stereotypically larger framed person in mind. When pushed around ’A’ roads it is predictable with a good feel to the brakes and I have driven cars with worse steering feedback. But this is not what this car is about. Fuel consumption was excellent. The only niggles are with the clutch-pedal-down starting procedure and the smallish boot space - but I am normally a hatchback fan and am used to piling it high.... Jaguar coined the phrase ’Grace, Pace and Sace’ - and it almost sums it up.

This I have to be honest is the best car I have ever owned, with ample space and great MPG (with the credit crunch I need it). I managed to purchase an ex demonstrator with only a 100 miles on for £16000 including the satellite navigation system from Ryfield Birmingham where they also had the petrol one for £12000. So have got a great car that gives a smooth ride and looks different and more classy than its competitors. Well done Chrysler.

I’ve had my car for 4 months now. It’s great value for money if you can pick up an ex demo. Nice and roomy and plenty of gadgets to get to grips with. Try and get a model with the MyGig sat nav fitted, a much better option than the basic CD player.

It feels like a million dollars, and costs roughly that much to get it from our house to Tesco and back. I was persuaded to buy my black "batmobile" by my 9 year old son who couldn’t settle to bed all night after we’d been for a test drive in it a couple of weeks ago, so thrilling he found it..... OK, I didn’t do much research, and the ZZ Top thing grabbed me, as did the relative obscurity and undeniable surfeit of creature comforts offered within... will I still have it in 6 months time? Not sure, but I’ll certainly still be talking about it, and it makes a change to see a car that actually looks like a proper car, not just another conservative "family" jelly mould with broadly predictable kit, mpg etc... 25 miles to the gallon? That’s why god gave us credit cards. Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!

Quite simply its the best blend of value for money, prestige & executive saloon, power & performance in the UK car market! With head turning presence, performance that surprises when ever its required & a sumptuous drive & luxury driver position. I have driven almost as many cars as the famous curly top MR J Clarkson & covered in excess of 1,500 miles a week for the past 3 years, this car not only saved my life it almost felt part of the family. Not only does it have a much stronger residual value than any Jaguar S Type, Mercedes E Class, BMW 5 series or even the new face lifted Audi A6, just look at the monthly contract hire or PCP figures. I use E.S.Hartley, Ings, Kendal, Cumbria. They are the most relaxed, knowledgeable, thorough vehicle leasing company in the market, well worth a call.

I wanted one of these car for quite some time, I eventually got one second hand and apart from the very poor turning circle I thought the car was excellent, plenty of power and quite good on fuel for the size of the engine. But then it all turned very bad, one day I was driving along and the engine just cut out, fortunately I was only doing 25mph on a side road - god knows what would have happened if I had been overtaking on the motor way. I got the car taken to a Chrysler Dealer who found the ASD fuse had blown and when it was replace it just started no problems, the big problem is no one, not even Chrysler UK can tell me why the fuse blow and they could give no guarantee that it would not happen again. As you may has guessed I am getting rid of it since it is a potential death trap.

Overall not a bad car except for the bad turning ratio, being hard on fuel and faulty gauges. The speedometer was off by 5 kilometres.

At list price it’s below par, but look at the actual price you pay! Where else can you get a diesel engined car, as big as a BMW 5 Series, with leather, that will averasge 50+mpg if you’re careful, for less than 13,500 with metalic black paint and supaguard! The only annoyance is that the standard stereo is only a single cd.... Some of the plastics are a little cheap, but solid and well put together.... I couldn’t find a better new car for the price.

The 300c is not a Mercedes but it is £30,000 pounds cheaper. I have driven Mercedes since 1988 and have enjoyed the spec at a price. The 300c gives you a very good standard of spec at 1/2 the cost of the price of the Germans. It is reliable, comfortable and spacious... so don’t delay and buy one today. The only thing I can’t answer is what 2nd hand value it will demand on the market...

It’s a big and bold car so I know it won’t appeal to everyone but having never been a shrinking violet I think it’s wonderful. Amazing value for how much car you get and it certainly turns heads. Masses of space for both driver and passengers make it feel luxurious and very comfortable. Not as bad on fuel as you’d expect and nice to cruise around in.

Why?? I recently test drove this car, out of sheer curiosity really. It’s not that it’s a bad car to drive, I’ve definately driven worse, but there’s no getting away from the fact you look like you’re driving an oversized rollerskate! A head turner but for all the wrong reasons.

I chose this car from a list of run of the mill company cars because I wanted something a little different. It certainly looks the part and has some very nice details but on the whole I’ve found it a little underwhelming. Maybe I’m being a little unkind as it’s the first Chrysler I’ve ever driven but for all it’s razzamatazz it just doesn’t deliver anything really that special. An okay car but will probably go back to the Passat or similar when I have the chance.

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.

Slow, sluggish. That’s just to start. The gearbox is mounted slightly of centre so 1st gear would be where reverse is and second is where first would be. It is noisy and it sounds like you have to over rev to pull away. It has a large turning circle. It is also not good on fuel, around 25-30 mpg. The acceleration is about 0-60 in 1hour. My great Nan could push a full shopping trolley up hill in flippers faster. This is a well over priced car.

I have mixed feelings about this car. From a practical perspective, it’s really good. The seats fold down very easily, providing masses of luggage space, all-round visibility is fine, and the electronic sliding doors are a real asset with children. Not so impressive, though, is the engine, which lacks refinement. It’s a noisy engine, and a noisy car to drive on the motorway. This is disappointing, and detracts quite a bit from what would otherwise be a really good family MPV. It’s all very well sitting in roomy comfort, but if you have to shout at each other all of the time to be heard, journeys are not as relaxing as they could be.

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?

I live In Montreal at the moment and needed a car during my stay so I bought a 300 Chrysler, great looks, spacious, great handing and brakes for an American car, and is good in the heavy snow and ice we get here, fuel economy is about 25-27 to the gallon, best of all due to local promotions and special offers, I paid $22,000 Canadian (about 8K!!!!!!!) Last I saw in the UK they were asking 27k1 Lovely family car, and midnight metallic blue looks really sinister at night. Ross

Amazing value for money - Xenon headlights, cruise, memory seats and mirrors, leather interior, heated front seats, electronic compass + outside temp. It looks great, is quiet, powerful (Merc engine) and econonmical (nearly 35 mpg). It drives beautifully and you can recognise it’s Mercedes heritage without the price tag... A lot of car for the money.

This is a such a well thought out car, really clever flexible seating system, bags of space and very well equipped. It has great safety features, which as it’s usually piled hih with kids is obviously a priority. Running costs aren’t cheap but this should keep a good resale value so it’s still a great investment. Extremely easy to drive and very quite but maybe not quite as refined as others.

I’m a BIG fan of the PT Cruiser and therefore couldn’t resist the convertable version. It’s a great looking car and and retains all the positive points of the hardtop but can be a bit rough going if there is any wind about and you’re a passenger in the back with the roof is down. Good car but even I must admit it has somehow lost some of the personality of the original.

Bought this car 2 years ago on an 03 plate with only 10k on the clock and in mint condition. Its a great family car with a massive boot and has been extremely reliable.
