BUYING A FIAT PANDA IN ITALY

  • Good evening! Sorry, this one is quite late tonight but it's all about the Italians' nostalgia for the retro Fiat Panda car and our little experience buying a secondhand used car in Tuscany for my parents. I hope you like it. You can find many more videos on my channel about how I learned Italian and moved to Italy. Making these episodes alone is very time consuming and expensive and if you would like to support my work, you can find my Patreon page here:

    You can find my recipes and other information on moving to Italy, learning Italian or my filmmaking equipment on my website:

    Please don't follow me on Facebook as that person is not me - they have stolen my identity for the past few years. You can follow me over on Instagram for daily inspiration from Italy and around the world to make you dream, learn a language, cook, travel, move to a foreign country, film, edit or pursue your passion:

    KYLIEEEE this has to be one of my favorite videos of yours ever. It’s just so happy and joyful and and nostalgic and makes me feel like I’ve been let in on an Italian inside joke.
    Your videos have been such a welcome respite for me over the years as I escape from law school studies and studying for the bar exam. Thank you!!!
    I’ve felt like we’ve been long lost friends ever since I watched one of your videos about three years ago. I’ve only just plucked up the courage to comment now. I hope you and your family enjoy a beautiful summer together. 🥰

      In reality, red in Italy is not so obvious. Suffice it to say that the main Ferrari color is yellow while the sporty one is Blue / Azure (deriving from the Savoy family). Italian red is just a coincidence, in the 1930s the FIA ​​decided to identify car manufacturers by assigning a color based on nationality. Red has happened to us Italians.

    This is absolutely fascinating Kylie
    🧡
    I fully understand the nostalgia aspect of this car when I look back at videos and photographs from my childhood all the cars were boxy in the 90s
    However there is that sense of familiarity warmth and comfort from those memories.
    In England everybody is obsessed with the mini as it is a British car from the 60s it’s super popular over here even though it’s super duper small (and you can’t fit a car seat for a child in the back if you get a two-door)
    And everybody has to practically fold themselves in half to enter an exit the vehicle; yet just because of the nostalgia and the sentiment it’s a national treasure 🧡❤️🧡
