I bought my PT Cruiser, (2005 2.4i Classic Auto), by accident - I'd always thought they were sort of cool, but not not exactly my heart's desire,
Unfortunately, with 2 auctions closing, and a severely stuffed Camry wagon that had been clocked and cooked sitting in my carport leaking ATF all over the place, I needed wheels for the next day.
So I hit BUY Now on an online auction, and then the internet went all strange.
So I ended up with the Cruiser, and a Peugeot 308 7 seater. It was a rocket, but extremely fucked.
So I lost a few bucks on it and kept the Chrysler.
I like it because it's weird, goes ok, and is an export model, so maybe it handles better than the US version.
It was still built in Mexico, but the biggest annoyances are a persistent rattling from the driver's side mirror, and the prospect of spending $NZ800 to have the timing belt done, (145km - 90k miles).
If I do that, I'll bite the bullet and get the engine and transmission mounts done at the same time, rear suspension bushes as well - (you should see our roads in Northland).
Theoretically,, this may cost me $3000, but the car is is freaky and so versatile that I'd rather spend the money on it than on a deposit on another shitty Toyota.
Any else noticed that Toyotas ain't what they used to be?
At the moment I'm driving a Mazda Demio. Well, no I'm not - it's too depressing
I'll walk..
Cheers, Andy
