Great little cars I personally thing it looks good in the flesh!
Also its the only car worth buying for 10k when it can be bought for less than 9k with contacts!
Who ever said its not a hot hatch needs to rethink what boxes this ticks

£10k on a supermini with 100 bhp?
These are the same people saying don't spend £15k on a Corsa with twice that which IMO is a far cooler car.

I wonder if Fiat will be doing a 500 100HP (they'd probably need to call it something else  ), that's got to be a good seller, as the 500 is actually small, unlike the Punto.

Its a bit ugly but a its decent enough city car/run around.
I drove a LHD Panda 1.2 when i was on holiday a few years back and its a decent enough car to drive... i'd even go as far to say i liked it... but its still a bit ugly.

why the fuck are they compring it to a ferrari 360 on a go kart track? thats the most ridiculous thing iv ever seen, it doesnt prove anything, other than maybe the panda is better on a go kart track, but when is that situation ever likely to crop up 
i bet a go kart would beat them both on a go kart track
next they will compare a tractor to a ferrari in a muddy field and get excited when the tractor beats it to the other side

My brother and his girlfriend have a regular one. Really well built, clunky doors like a German car. Interior isn't too bad either.
