Its been almost a year without me owning a fiat after I sold the Seicento Abarth and I thought it was about time to add another Fiat to the family!

Some of you will have seen mrs soggytomato's snot green 4x4 at Stanford Hall last year



well Ive decided to get a 4x4 too



Its a 2008, 58 in yellow with 69k, panoramic roof, elec mirrors, mp3 head unit and sliding rear seats but unfortunately its not got the steering wheel radio controls or the sub/amp under the drivers seat like mrs soggytomato's.

I'll get a thread in members motors started on it when I get chance

Looks good! And in the best colour too.

thanks I like the colour too but still think mrs soggytomato's green is the best colour!

Nah wasn't too bad but was cheaper than some I looked at and with less mileage.
Paintwork and interior are all good-just needs a good polish when the weather gets a bit better.
I saw one that looked like it had been repainted by a 5yr old and I saw a 55 plate with similar miles for more money-and that was a private sale!! A couple had well over 100k on them, although I know they'll do that easily, I'd rather be the one putting on the mileage, not buying with it already on!
Finding a good 4x4 is not the easiest of tasks unless you can afford a new/nearly new one!

The 4x4 keeps its price well indeed. It's hard enough finding ANY private sale Panda, let alone a 4x4. Woodleigh have a penchant for snapping any 4X4s up and then sticking £2 grand onto them at the forecourt.


I gave up on trying to get a 4x4 and so now have a low miles Dynamic to go with the 100ho which is on winter tyres (and boy they are impressive in the snow/ice).
