Mine is a black 2006 so I might be biased, but the black looks beautiful. And the rims look great too.
In my experience how a used car "feels" makes all the difference. Always leave some budget for things to be fixed though!

I've had Golf Gti's before the 100HP but they got too lardy and chavvy ...the fiat is very close in spirit to the mk1 golf.

sweet! im sold on the panda 100hp thats for sure, its just a question between the blue one and the black one and i really can't decide, my heart is saying the black'n. its got 20K more miles on it, 3 months newer, 4 months less MOT, brand new wheels and tyres which come to £680 approx, 1 owner (both have) full history (both have) and the service history on black'n is all FIAT history no other garage. which is such a big deal i think.

it just got harder, i found these two

i must admit im not that keen on that kind of white that the pandas got painted in :/ just a bit plain for my liking, the blue, black and grey are the best colours i think. i mean i cant change the colour 2 years down the road but i can always change the seats lol

if you want the best HP colour it would be blue hands down, other colours come as plain black, grey, red, white. But the Orleans blue is one off special colour it really pops when polished and in the sun as it has flake in the paint.

I mean just look at this! click on the picture to get up close and personal!
