Considering one of these as a winter hack in and out of work. Found a low mile one owner one for peanuts near me.

There really isn't a lot of advice/threads on them, just one Australian site saying the drive train is complicated.

Anyone any experience with them? It would be replacing an 06 panda 4x4 that's served faithfully for 5 winters but got sold in a moment of weakness.

Reliable, slow and sweet revving.

Feels very much like a car to drive.

Good cars.

Came across one here in France a week or two ago, a rarity indeed. I'd certainly be tempted. If I came across a Shuttle 4x4 that hadn't rusted away (like the one round the back of the Honda dealer in Limoges) I'd be even more tempted.

Bought this wee one. Very low miles and drives like new. A set of snow tyres and I'm set.

Impressed so far, surprisingly good on the motorway.
