2011 Fiat Panda 1.1 from UK and Ireland

Summary:

Fun

Faults:

None, only had it for a short time. Only had it as a lease car while working overseas.

General Comments:

As I rule I was told as a child by various family members, that Fiats are cheap and nasty...

This is true, but damn they are fun to drive...

It was a basic car, cheap plastics and basic white paint. But it was good on fuel, fun to be in, and the valves danced when pushed.

As a cheap run about I'd consider buying one, but you may as well get the more chic 500.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Don't Know

Have to agree. Pleasantly surprised by 2 rentals. One was the 4x4 model. Easy to drive and surprisingly comfortable with great visibility. Great for a fun runabout. Only concern would be reliability.

Good cars when new/nearly new. Do not keep long term ;)

As true today as it was in the 80's for Fiat.
