    Not the Micra anyway

    I'd go for the Colt there, but watch the gearboxes, some are a little iffy.

    Personal experience or just Fiat pub talk?

    OP, you could get a nice Fiesta 1.25 litre Steel on that budget:

    I've heard eh. Why do people seem to voice opinion on things they know nothing about.
    No offence but have you even ever driven a Fiat??!:rolleyes:

    I personally drive an Alfa GT. If I had listened to people I'd never have bought an Alfa because people all say I'd never buy one because alfa's are unreliable"

    Anyway I'm going off topic.

    thanks for your feedback guys appreciate it.

    ps I think the Colt might suit her best due to size.

    I'll have to go see a few of em but they seem a bit bigger than say a fiesta or micra.

    I have a nice 2007 Black Peugeot 207 SE. Top spec model, low milage. Looking to sell very soon. I would be willing to do a good deal on it if you are interested.

    Was it a first generation Panda? Current Pandas are brilliant little cars, if I didn't measure six feet in every direction I'd drive one myself.

    The Fiat panda is meant to be good right? I know Fiat havent a great name but James May from Top Gear seems to love them.

    He owns a Panda. Fiat have seriously got their act together in the past few years. I don't have any personal experience with them though
