Hello all.
I'm keen to buy a new Panda Cross or 4x4. I'm buying new, and I'm kicking myself that I didn't do the deal before Christmas as there were some big discounts going on....but I guess Fiat will release some new offers again soon.
So, in the meantime, apart from a few toys and a little extra ground clearance, are there any other reasons to pay quite a bit extra for a Cross? I do like its chunky looks, I have to say...
Also, it looks to me that they now put a slightly detuned (85bhp vs 90bhp)twinair engine in these cars. Can anyone confirm?
And it also looks like they've stopped using mud and snow tyres and instead now fit summer tyres. Is this going to have a detrimental effect?
It has to be said, however, that whilst I live in West Cornwall where there is plenty of mud and surface water on the roads a lot of the time, I'm not going to be going off roading as such....I just like the idea of the extra stability in bad weather.
TIA
Jason
