PT Cruisers are the ugliest things ever.
Not to mention the most expensive to repair.
Just 1 of their head lights to replace costs beyond $1000 I'm not kidding you.

We had one come in last year that had a bit of frontal damage and one of the head lights had to be replaced.
Not to mention the customer wasnt very happy with the bill total when it was finished. :

Deffintly looks fake, theres basically no gap between where the bonet meets the pully on the front of the super charger making it imposible to open the bonet, unless it lifts off... :s

Missus backed into a Mitsu Lancer, Fairmont : $nil. Lancer corner indicator light assembly no panel or paint work $1200 I kid you not !!!! AAMI said that is the correct cost. Insurance paid for it minus excess.
