General Panda Sport 100hp UK launch

[Schwenck]

Test drive organised for Friday - aren't I the lucky one!

Grrrr! No, I'm calm. Call me a masochist, but I've decided to hold off a test drive until the New Year when (hopefully) I'll have had a pay rise and I can consider a bit of the old finance. Hope it doesn't disappoint Simer, I'm sure it won't! By the way, I've seen on Autotrader Thames Valley FIAT in Slough have a couple of pre-registered examples listed already...

Ordered the Sport & can't wait for January.

It's like a very enthusiastic puppy - reminds me a lot of the 205 Gti.

Really fruity exhaust note - extraordinary in such a wee car!

I guess you enjoyed the test drive then Simer! Have you added to the spec at all? The FIAT UK website still doesn't admit it exists...

Only Black & ESP - we presumed the same prices as per regular Panda extras.

Let's hope that the hatted ones start chucking them off the road (without injuring themselves or others,of course) -- I want the engine out of one for my Sei! :devil:

If I get a pay rise in January, I might hold you to that...

The Panda 100HP is bringing me back to Fiat

Will have one to replace the smart next year when the ex-demo's arrive, but it really MUST be in that grey...

Demos are due to be sold off three months from now.

Both the ones I've seen are THAT grey.

Best get your name down quick if you want one

Other than me has anyone ordered/bought a 100hp yet?

did the demo this morning, was a dark bluey, looked the part, the mrs was a bit timid, i found a little right left right left flic flac that was great fun and surprising flat compared to the eleganza, the ride is that bit firmer and you feel and hear more coming up from the road, but the handling really makes it worth while, the steering has now weighted up beautifully, chunky wheel too....only issues now, a deal.....the mrs is humming and hawing.....

 

[simer]

Go for it - you know you want to!

I think you probably have a duty to the Forum Jai, purely for research purposes like...

Well top gear has written a very well balanced review for a change in their latest magazine and they like it . Said it has a nice (but not over the top) induction roar I've got to get me a drive in one .

[Jai]
