Were you able to read the dash / speedo through the nice modern fashionable tiny steering wheel that Fiat's designers fitted to the car?
I agree about there being still lots of classic Pandas around certain parts of Italy... I had one once but when I see them in Italy they just look like a tinny functional little piece of equipment, which is what they were! I don't really see why the classic Panda mob on FiatForum get so enthusiastic about them!
