Advantages: DISABILITY DRIVERS WILL LOVE THIS

Disadvantages: LITTLE NARROW FOR LARGER PEOPLE

The fiat Panda is a brilliant buy for disabled people. I have problems using my arms and the power steering and city park features are brilliant and so easy to use. I would suggest care when first using the city park feature as I managed to scrape my cars left wing not realising how near to a gatepost I had managed to park! The seat height is perfect for people with back/hip and knee problems as you are able to 'sit' into the car. No climbing up or slouching down is necessary. My husband is well over six foot and there is plenty of headroom in the Fiat Panda. The electic window and remote lock system is also of great help for people with poor grip and hand function problems. I use my car a great deal for short journeys and was delighted to find that I the car is averaging nearly 40mpg. There are drawbacks - the car is quite narrow so larger people may have a problem with seat space and the boot is small although I have managed to fit a wheelchair in without letting the back seats down. Leg room in the back is limited but children would be quite comfortable.

Summary: SO GLAD I BOUGHT THIS CAR
