Just out of curiosity I rang my local fiat dealership to see what they would charge for either just parts or a repair and a I was shocked by the attitude of one of the mechanics there. I know about the bad reputation of dealing with Fiat dealerships but this is the first time i've experienced it first hand!
All i did is say I needed a gearbox fitted.. the first couple of people i spoke to seemed helpful but I was put through to someone who instantly said 'its not something we would want to do, goodbye' and put the phone down on me whilst i was speaking!
I rang up again and luckily didn't speak to that guy and found the cost of a gearbox from them to be £800
Anyone else had to put up with attitude problems from Fiat regarding the old panda's? Fair enough its an old car but there's no need for the response i got.
I was considering getting one of the new Panda's at some point in the future but its attitudes like these that put you off buying anything by them...
