My first ever car was a 750cc FIAT PANDA! It had a hammock for a rear seat and upon passing my test I proudly took my girlfriend and her parents for the slowest ascent of Alexandra Palace hill in the world. We almost stopped and I had to keep dropping gears to get some revs and keep moving. Even the rust moved faster than that thing. It was eventually put out of its misery by a Rover SD1. Funny thing is, it had a tintop!!!

Nothing went wrong with it apart from the rear doors had seperate inner and outer skins held together with some of Isopon's finest. A rust bubble on top of the offside wing looked innocent enough until i tried my hand at body work repair… by the time i'd ground the rust away i could fit my head through the hole.
Handled like a barge and drank fuel quicker than an F15 with afterburners lit…
Not all bad though; it was rear wheel drive. When it failed the MoT it was because of the bodywork and not the mechanics. Sold the Towbar for ?75, the stainless exhast for ?75 to the same bloke, and sold the rest of the car to a breaker for ?150 (he had a mint bodied one with a seized lump!)

Only none VAG car was company car Vectra previously owned by Mr.T or someone with as much bling.. The steering wheel gearknob door cards…the whole interior bore the Jewelery damage scratches and was fragged. I loathed its poor visibility and had two Vnear misses thanks to it. However it was a workhorse so cant complain..

Infact the first time the exhaust fell off it came off near the front end, and as I was going about 20 mph at the time the whole back end of the car ended up pivoting in the air on top of the now vertical back exhaust section.
God, I HATED that car.
