A Daihatsu Sirion or a even a late mk1 yaris would probably be better again.

Panda is a great little city car. Surprising amount of room also. I owned one for about a year and I loved it.

Don't pay any attention to people who say Fiat's are unreliable. A good one will be just as good as a Toyota/Nissan/VW etc and it'll be cheaper.

Fiesta would be a very solid choice also.
