Just thought I'd mention how useful we find the multijet for 2 adults, a 2 year old and a 4 year old. We bought it for commuting as we have a 45 mile round trip to work each day, but it's amazing tardis-like features mean we use it most of the time. 65 mpg (granted that's as per the dash not calculated), boot big enough for a week's Lidl shopping or a small double buggy, fast enough, easy to park, copes well with dreadful potholed country lanes etc etc. Ours is not a 'city car'.
We do have another car (my MGZS) which is more fun but the economy of the panda usually wins out for general driving about. We only use the Rover if we're going to a car boot sale and need the extra space. It remains to be seen how the panda copes as our children get older (we've had it 18 months or so so far) but we don't plan to get rid of it any time soon!
And before I finish, why do reviewers compare the 3 door VW Up with the 5 door panda? Not the same niche!
