Greetings Fiat folk -
I am about to take the plunge and buy my first Fiat, a Panda diesel, and was looking for some insight into potential servicing and maintenance costs.
I am considering a 2008 / 08 Panda 1.3 16v Multijet Dynamic which has clocked c.80k miles. I am aiming to do 6k-8k per year for the next 4-5 years.
What are the likely issues which might arise? What are the typical servicing costs for such a wee beastie? I understand that the engine is also fitted to Corsas - is there any experience of them from the Vauxhall side of the fence?
Am looking forward to getting this (or another) Panda - my test drive was entertaining and the headroom (I am 6'+) superb in a car of this size.
Thanks in anticipation!
Patrick
