Panda Active Eco! That's it!

(I am only 17, though. I did drive my Mum's Renault Laguna for a bit before. Definitely sticking with smaller cars in the future!)
 
It's easier to explain my problem with a picture. Current fleet, is the blue MX5 (had this for 4 years), Red A5 (awfull car, had this since Christmas eve last year) and the blue 100hp (bought it in Jan, fantastic car). Just put the deposit down yesterday on car number 48, getting rid of the A5. :)

This is a bit of a blast from the past! Four and a half years on and my story is still the same... Still on my second car since starting to drive eighteen and a half years ago... :p

My poor first car (1992 VW Polo Fox) finally met its demise at the ripe old age of 17. Having been passed down the family, its last owner decided the scrappage scheme was too tempting! She got £3k off a Kia Ceed...

Some exotic stuff there, yet I'm finding the Panda to be absolutely brilliant.
Didn't realise when I bought it, it had been in Evo magazine.

Passed my test in late 2008 here is my car history:-

2007 - I bought a Fiesta 1.1 MK3.5 on an N plate. Paid £350 for it, kept it till the engine died 9 months later. Cost little in repairs as the car was sound it just needed a new engine. I bought this to learn to drive in and lower my insurance costs when I pass (e.g 1 year no claims).

2008 - I passed my test, bought my first car, 1996 N Fiesta MK4 base spec, had a solid engine but discovered it was actually a horrific rust bucket. I didn't keep it long.

Early 2009 - I bought a 1999 V Corsa Club 1.2 16v, it was a top spec model with electric windows, PAS and electric heated mirrors. I had it a year, spent a bloody fortune on it and then the head gasket went. I got rid.

Early 2010 - My dad had an accident (none car) so was unable to drive, so I transferred his 1997 Fiesta Ghia into my name while waiting delivery of my Panda.

May 2010 - Took delivery of my brand new Panda Active and this is the car I still have now.

first car - 1993 Uno 45s MK2 - equipped like a classic car = nothing :)

second car - 1999 Puntu 60SX MK1 - was good for a year but I had a chance to buy the next car...

2006 Panda - was my dads (from new) then my moms and now mine, got it with ~35KM 1.5 years ago. now with 55km still just like a new car :)

My plans right now is to stay with the panda for more two years and then buy my fourth fiat: 500 Abarth :devil: (or a mini cooper)

Fiat panda 100HP{QUOTE]


Can't be many of us on here that now own a 100hp and previously owned a Rover 2600...........


Anyone for a Lancia Trevi ?


I was once barrel-rolled in a 1985 Panda 45 - have been side-swiped by an oncoming fuel tanker existing a roundabout during my right-of-way. Interesting game - getting out of the upturned Panda. I didn't have even a single bruise. The car did.
