Hello,
I'm new to the forum. I've always had an interest in Fiats but have never owned one. I'm looking to purchase a 2nd car for commuting (25 miles each way) and short runs with the family (partner and 2 year old son) - perhaps 5-10k miles per year. I've pretty much settled on getting a Fiat Panda, preferably post 2012 (and preferably ULEZ compliant). I'm looking at spending anything up to £4000. Would anyone have any recommendations of what to look out for, particularly regarding:
- 0.9 versus 1.2 on higher mileages/older vehicles. (I'm tempted by the 0.9)
- Any other important bits to look out for.
I'm based in the Scottish Borders, 20 miles from Edinburgh.
Many thanks
Lewis
