New Cars
Good: Roomier than previous version, with better seats and a more comfortable drive. Cheap to run. Better than your average city micro car.
Bad: Initially no right-hand-drive diesel version. Lacklustre cornering. Limited appeal beyond town use. No appeal if you need more than two seats.
Good: Good performance and reasonable range for an electric city-only car. Exempt from congestion charge and road tax. Cheap to run.
Bad: Initially available as a business lease car only and the monthly rentals are a high £375pm.

  • Review: FIAT Panda 2004
    Compact and practical, enjoyable and easy to drive, narrow size makes it easy to park, good space for those in the back.
