Hi everyone, I pick up my Panda Eleganza on Saturday (After a lot of messing about) I was wondering what I have to look for on the car when I take delivery of it? Are there any problems that any of you lot have found are common to the Panda? I've been told to look out for "fallout" on the paint (The paint is rough to touch, not smooth) Any other ideas?

this really annoying clunking noise, esp going round corners, tooks weeks to figure it out....the black box holding the locking nut keys! was in the passenger door pocket!

LOL Bloody Fiat build quality!
 
dont sweat it, just do the usual, walk round a few times, take someone with you to do the same, you'll be all loved up and they can be cold and clinical, mileage, interior should be mint, cig lighter unused (you'd be surprised), all the books (pdi stamp) paintwork , wheels, tyres all the usual, if you miss it your mate shouldn't. don't be shy to have a good poke around, after all it's your bucks, and the salesman who will want you out the door can wait till you are happy to sign! and then....enjoy! :D

New style Panda?

AM radio reception & ask if it needs recall on rear seats.

What's the recall on the rear seats for? Does it matter if it's a model with a third seat belt?

EDIT: Thanks for the tips Turboned (again lol)
 
Ooops my mistake,seat recall is on the Idea.....my humble apologies :eek: Done one today & immediately thought s**t its Ideas not Pandas!

As for rest of car,had a good drive in one today & good look about & I can honestly say I'm impressed.
 
We all make mistakes mate, no problem. At least that one less thing to worry about.....

EDIT: Do you work for a Fiat dealership?
