No touchy...

Rejoice and make merry, dear readers. For on this day of November 23rd 2005 we bring you the most marvelous news that Chrysler has released a reborn PT Cruiser for the UK. Oh yes, not only does the new model receive a massaged front grille, tweaked headlights and new front fog lamps, but Chrysler have also glued a new rear spoiler on the tailgate. It doesn’t get much better than this, friends.

As if that wasn’t exciting enough, there’s a new 2.2-litre 150bhp diesel powerhouse, delivering 25 per cent more oomph than the outgoing unit. Prices start at just £12,995 for a 2.4-litre manual model and £14,225 for the entry-level diesel. A cabrio version, which will no doubt be the “it” car for summer 2006, arrives March.

Classy.

P.S. The Chrysler PT Cruiser is not a chintzy, retro shed.
P.S.S. Sarcasm ends.
