my wife drives a pt. she loves it but she is not responsible for keeping it driving.

at 40k we had to do a head gasket. (POS).

and shortly thereafter we did struts and shocks, i put gabriels on and less than a year later i had to do it again. this time i put on bilsteins. so far so good.

they use a lot of gas though. 13 and 14 around town and it takes a good long trip driving 65 or less to top 20 mpg highway.

it is easy to get in and out of and very handy for garage saleing and such because the seats flip this way and that.
