Fiat Panda Reviews

I test drove the diesel this week and was very impressed. so much so that I ordered one and if you shop around you can find one at an almost 'disposable price'.

Even Clarkson rated it highly.

Seems like a great value for money 'green' package (70mpg) unless you're image conscious.

The time will come when it will frowned upon to drive anything less economical.

(Reliability rating is obviously a guess)

An excellent little car that is exceptionally reliable and easy to maintain. I am 6' tall and was still comfortable after a 10 hour drive as there is suprisingly plenty of space inside. They were manufactured up to 2003 in Italy and on a recent visit to Florence I saw them everywhere, both as cars and vans. Doors rust but ...

I am going to start this review by saying right up front that we are not Fiat Panda owners. However, I am fortunate enough during the course of the average year to get my hands on between 12 and 30 different cars to try, all types and sizes, from Fiat Panda's to V12 VW Pheaton's. I was born with a steering wheel in my hands and you could say, ...

I didn't think the day would come when I would gleefully write about the death of my Punto. But alas, two months ago while passing a Fiat garage with a large 0% finance sign gleaming in the sun, the idea of a new car sprung into my mind. 0%, can I possibly go wrong I mussed? So in I popped with all intentions to upgrade my x reg Punto ...

One thing people have to remember. Panda's are like Marmite. You either Love em, or hate em. I LOVE MINE!! Car: Fiat Panda 750 L Year: 1987 Interior:- The deckchair seats are the funniest things to look at, but there's more than enough leg room for me and i'm 6'2". The ...

my very first car...just happened to be a panda!!! - Advantages: econimical, wont get stolen!, good to park - Disadvantages: not exactly an aston martin, it has green seats!, not very powerful

I've been driving a G reg Fiat Panda 1000CL for about a year now and thought i'd put my thoughts down about it. It belonged to my sister in law who decided that she didn't want to drive anymore after she had a 5 MPH tap with a taxi. The car was repaired and bundled off to me as my Metro decided to conk out. I knew that this ...

Well, we have been and gone and taken the plunge- we've bought a second car! The reason for this is that, in spite of the fact that she is very pregnant, my wife decided to learn to drive! The problem that exists for us is that we live in a remote village in the wilds of Lincolnshire and it would appear to me that if you want to catch a bus ...

This is the perfect car for any first time owner/student/old granny/anyone who wants a great cheap, nippy, economical car. We first bought a Panda (Sergio Tacchini spec edition) 12 years ago because it was the only small car tall enough to accommodate my brother and I in the back (both 6 ft plus). Since then, I have taken over ownership of the ...

I was lent a Fiat Panda 1000cl for a few months after the Nissan Micra packed up. I was planning on using this car only for a few months while I was looking for a new car. In the 4,500 miles I covered in the time I had the Panda I had a very strong opinion on the car. What is a Panda? The Fiat Panda is a city/town car, ...

Just like the header says really! I live in the Scottish Borders, and round here it's essential to have a car. Sadly both my partner and I work in different towns, so two cars has become a neccesity for us. I've had my 'E' reg Panda now for nearly a year and I love it! Like others have said before, if you're ...

I grew up surrounded by Fiats. When I was 5 (1982) we got a Fiat 126. It was small, cute, and I thought because of the bucket seats, it must be fast. I didn't realise the seats had simply collapsed, and at 65 mph (its top speed) we could still be overtaken by the neighbours Rotweiler! So when we bought a Fiat Panda, it was a definate move ...

Possibly the worst the car I have ever driven! I had the misfortune of driving a 4x4 Panda for a whole summer a few years ago and it was miserable. Imagine if you will a tin can mounted on four marshmallows and you will get the idea. Handling was attrocious, every corner brought an unnerving amount of body roll and stopping required ...

Isn't she a pearl? A tin can on wheels it may be, but it serves its purpose and is very reliable. Mine says 'dance' on it which has even given it some strange studenty credability. Ok, it might crumple like a very crumply thing if it gets touched by another car, so drive carefully, but it's cheap and erm.... well it's cheap. ...
