Hello ppl, the last 6 months am in love with panda 4x4 and think am gonna buy one soon. From the threads and the tests in magazines i have read, i believe TA suits me better.
The problem is that here in Athens Greece diesel cars r a new thing and most new cars on the road r diesel. Especially for panda 4x4 u cant find for a TA for a test drive. Anyway 2 weeks ago i had a test drive with the diesel and in general i loved it. I was surprised with the torque of the car and the on the move acceleration. The only big NO for the diesel was the 5 speed gear box. Didnt liked it(am used in japanese cars) and for my taste made the car very noisy in highway speeds.
After returning the car to the fiat dealer we had a small descusion about the option of buying the TA one and he was staring me like an allien!!! He said that that i must be crazy of wanting a car with so bad mpg comparing the diesel one!!! The thing is that the 6 speed gear box, the 10 more hp and the quieter highway speeds tell my heart to go for the TA.
My main reason of my preferance is that my miles per year dont exceed 5000(cause motorbike).
I would appreciate all your comments.....thx alot and sorry for my poor english
