I have relatively recently come to Fiat in my old age and have been very pleased. My wife and I wanted a small runabout and a Panda was the cheapest available. We got a 2010 white 1100 eco Active and were pleasantly surprised at the level of refinement for the price. After a couple of years, we upgraded to a 2011 black 1200, which is a bit more lively than the 1100.
