AS a little "mountain goat " .so i can get inside the ULEZ in london. Carry a few tools .Cheap to run. And still on winter tyres get around snowdonia road etc


Probably a 07 for the money

Bear in mind that Fiat build these cars from cheap parts.
I bought my daughter a 1.1 07 and it needed a fair bit doing - washer pump, drop links etc that had just worn out.

Reminded me of my old Mini which seemed to be a rotational cycle of replacing parts.

They don't rust like old Minis though.

I've recently bought a 2006 Panda Dynamic Multijet (diesel) that's done 105k miles. Quite shabby paintwork, so I doubt it's been looked after for a fair few years. No signs of rust on the body or floorpan, just a bit of surface rust on suspension components. After a decent service and a new clutch slave cylinder, it's all working OK, and I'm getting close to 70mpg on local journeys.

Pandas may be cheap, but they aren't made of really cheap parts.
