Hello all.
My name's Martin and I'm from Sheffield. Three weeks into ownership of my 07 Panda 100HP (black) which I've coveted pretty much since the Evo articles. This is my 4th Fiat after:
1985 C Panda 45 cream - sold due to lack of funds/poor student
1990 G Uno 45 white - complete with fake Italia 90 stripes and logos - crashed/written off, replaced with
1998 R Punto 60 blue - 48k faithful miles, replaced in 2005 with my only non-Fiat
2002 02 Alfa Romeo 156 silver - 45k pretty trouble free miles, finally sold it in Feb this year and struggles on sharing the wife's Yaris SR until my resolve gave way and the 100HP could be resisted no longer.
Enjoying it so far, it although I'm having to take care over certain bumps and humps I took for granted in the Alfa. Not had chance to do a really long run yet although it did get to visit Manchester via the Woodhead last week. Stuck behind lorries both ways though. Looking forward to reading more of the forum, although it's inexplicably blocked at work. Ironically, the Alfa Owners forum that was blocked isn't anymore following a recent change of fun police software.
Cheers
Martin
