Recently picked up this 2014 Panda 1.2 pop with 66,000 miles on the clock, full service history, 2 owners. I was a bit unsure to start with (none height adjustable seat & 6ft 4") but I can honestly say I love it now 600 miles into ownership. It's so basic, but such good fun to drive and I can see why Pandas have a cult following. So, given they're quite popular, lets see your Fiat Pandas! I'll start:



(Yes, I did only have to take the front wheel off)

Not mine - but made me smile - asked before taking the photos.

I’ve just bought a really cheap Panda 4x4 to keep the miles off my Vantage - I have a feeling I’m going to quite like the simplicity of the little Fiat





Looks like someone has been carrying stuff straight on the roof...



And the rear bumper is properly knackered...

Perfect spec! Twinair?

I bet you'd get similar to what you bought it for if you sold now, I've seen some new ones listed for £20k!

This is mine. Had it 2.5 years now, my unicorn car. It’s a 13 plate, but only had 13k miles on it when I bought it and in excellent condition, virtually brand new in many respects. Owned by a more senior gentleman who had this as a second car to his Maserati. Had to snap it up.

Yes, twinair - my 2nd, first one i bought new in early ‘13, was brilliant but sold in a moment of madness and then a few years later I realised my mistake and ordered another (same colour too, weirdo that i am). A lot of cars come and go, but this Panda will remain.

Here's my 100hp. I keep thinking about selling it, but when there is decent weather and I've had back road "ragging" I realise that I'll probably regret that.

This is currently my 100hp. Purchased in back in May and by the end of June I was ripping the engine out of it due to low compression on 2 and 3. It's now running the 1.4 Tjet at around 150hp.

Gearbox and subframes to swap next month and a remap should take it to just over 200hp.

Love this - I was always hoping to go down the TJet route with mine too!

Then I had a kid, and now it's up for sale cry

This is mine bought locally and our mechanic has sorted €800 of parts fitted for just €215. Currently owes me approx €2,000. Yes it’s scruffy but it will suit me for trundling around here in Western Sicily.

It’s a 1995 900ie so base model special.
