well mrs turboned has had her panda eleganza (in sparkling metallic blue) since mar 04, and although shes only done about 4000 miles, it's been perfect. no rattles or squeaks, yet fingers crossed! nice and nippy in and out of the urban rat race, suspension is soft but i dont think it's that rolly, not done any serious motorway work yet, but 4 up round town has been fine and comfy. it's first service is coming up in mar 05, so reading other threads in here will have to make a choice for a good dealship to look after the car, looks like either currie motors in watford or thames in slough, desira (southgate) were most rude at the buying stage, maybe they didnt like me rolling up in the uno!
the one thing that is annoying about the car is the very poor design of the stereo (cd), but i understand that the current ones are improved
