Hello ...great site ..found some really useful info in making my decision to get a fiat.

Had a 1.2 sporting punto when i was a youngster....loved the car it was great.
fast forward many years and 3 kids later looking to get another fiat

going to test drive a new panda pop soon.....like the look of the i-deal on the main site.

Want it in red, the spare wheel and usb connection.

Any advice on how to haggle with the dealer for these options? Can i get a discount on them?

Thanks
Andy

hello Andy, and welcome to FF,

say Hi in the panda section,

don't think they are selling too well - so deals are there to be had..,

Thanks varesecrazy

Also does anyone know if i buy an aftermarket radio , say from halfords, if they can install it easy or is this not possible

Sure you can replace the stereo, but it will need fascia adapter, wiring harness adapter, and ultimately won't integrate into the dashboard half as nicely as the original unit does...

Well i did it. Got a new Panda pop. Got it in black,spare tyre and a tank of fuel thrown in for free.Got the same payments plan as the i-deal but managed to get it for £114 instead of £119 as the dealer payed a larger contribution.
Think I got a good deal. Couldn't get them to put the blue and me in for free so going to get one of them radio tuners from amazon. Pick it up tomorrow.

Do I need to run in the engine on the car? if so for how long? and would it be better to take it on a long motorway drive first of all or just let it the run in on normal driving?

Thanks
Andy

I added bluetooth for about £25 https://www.fiatforum.com/i-c-e/337457-2013-panda-iphone-aux-input.html?p=3481295
