I have found a car that I want so the Panda is up for sale.
48k miles (will go up as it's used daily), FSH (Fiat & Fiat specialists), 2nd owner, just been serviced.
During the last 12 months/18k miles the following items have been replaced:
cambelt, tensioner and water pump (OEM items), first lambda sensor (OEM part), engine oil and filter three times (Silkolene Pro-S 5w-40), spark plugs, air filter (twice), coolant (Paraflu), gearbox oil (Titan Sintopoid 75w-85), brake fluid (ATE type 200), pollen filter, rear brake pads, shock absorbers (Koni sport yellow all around), rear bump stops, wheels and tyres (Michelin Pilot Sport 3).
The car needs nothing and drives perfectly as it should.
It’s been one of the most fun cars I've owned (road legal go-kart), it has never let me down and is very economic on fuel (averages 40mpg but can do 49 if you are careful).
The Konis have improved the ride quality and cured the bouncyness these cars are renown for.
Standard spec includes bluetooth/CD/mp3/radio, 6-speed gearbox, auto clima.
The only bad points are a couple of small dings on the front passenger door which are visible under certain angles/lights (courtesy of polite people opening their doors on mine).
No steering wheel delamination (common problem in these cars) or wear on the seats and the red is very flamboyant!
All exterior plastics have been treated with Gtechniq C4 permanent trim restorer.
Cheers guys. It is indeed a fun, economic and cheap to run car in excellent condition apart from a small ding on the rear passenger door (courtesy of people opening their doors against your car in car parks and a small scratch on the front bumper).
I've done 18k miles in a year and if it doesn't sell I will keep it as a workhorse.
A couple of pics from Cadwell last summer, it was mega fun and due to its lack of weight it didn't wear the tyres or brakes!
