My New Panda...


It's a world apart from the Punto (Mk1 75), but, it feels a little better around corners even though is taller and narrower. But best of all, I can park it and its ridiculously easy to drive. I think it'll keep me happy till the Grande Punto, all im going to change is the headunit

Re: My New Panda...

neat!!!

handles better than a mk1 or a mk2 punto because the suspension probably isn't made out of any old junk

I would quite like a panda, a diesel though

Re: My New Panda...

The 1.1 Petrol. Had 4 people in it last night, way fine on the motorway, but A roads were a bit boring and slow.

If you can get a long enough run up, it'll take corners at high speeds easily. I think its 14 seconds 0-60

It's good on fuel, but I should have probably gone for the diesel
