Experience of Panda and Dualogic but not Twinair.Saw a Twinair in the garage that had a ruined engine with a thousand miles on the clock ,because the owner failed to check the oil level.
The Panda was a great car BUT be wary of Dualogic. Unless the car is new and got a good long warranty I would advise anyone not to purchase without doing an extremely long test.
The Dualogic ,when it works, I think cannot be bettered, BUT if dodgy can be a source of expense and trouble. I've had Dualogics for the past 12 years and had troubles with two of the three cars , having to get rid of them as even Fiat couldn't even fix one of them . They decided that one fault , incurable , was 'a characteristic'..
THERE AGAIN, WHEN THEY ARE WORKING CORRECTLY THEY ARE GREAT . You can override the box when it's in 'auto' a very useful thing to be able to do, even in 'manual' it can override you if you do anything wrong.
So, as a precis, buy new, but be very careful if buying used.
 
I've had my Dualogic TA for just over a year now. I bought it from a main dealer (its a 63 plate, which had only 5k miles on it)), as I was a bit worried about possible issues.
I've now added 21k miles, and really rate it. It takes a little getting used to (especially if you're used to a conventional auto) but overall, I'm very happy with it.
Apart from full throttle 1st to 2nd changes (where it seems to take forever to make the shift), the changes are very smooth and change exactly where I'd be changing gear if it were manual, around 95% of the time.
 
Thank you gentlemen,i'm going to try & track one down for a Demo,i've tried a few times without much luck,maybe this time we'll find one.
