Very nice! We had a Panda as a hire car on our holiday in Ireland back in 2005. 😀👍
Brand new then, nice! It’s surprising that this is now 17 years old actually but it has held up really well!
Great video. Lovely little Panda and looks in very good condition. My old Panda Dynamic is still one of my favourite cars, wish I had never traded it in. If you ever want to sell the 4x4... 😉
Georgina has taken to it quite well and it’s even wearing her private plate now so might wait for a little while on that one! 😉 Cheers, the Dynamics are great too! We’ve had Actives and 100HPs from the 169 world as well!
I cant wait to see the 141 vs 169 video! Love genie the dog too!
Good video. Here in Italy the FIAT Panda is one of the most common cars.
We saw loads of them when we flew to Italy to drive a Delta and 126 back! Love seeing so many 141s as there aren’t so many left over here now!
I recently bought a 2010 Panda (2x4) and it's been a great little car. It's such a good runabout and does 51 mpg!
They're so easy to work on, when I got it I changed the oil, put in a new thermostat, fan belt and changed the timing belt. Easy peasy.
I actually removed the backseat and turned it into a two seater, because the rear seats and boot are just too small.
The 2wd does much better mpg! Glad you’re enjoying yours, they’re great cars and nice to work on as you say! The 4x4 drivetrain makes certain things slightly more involved but I’d still much rather work on this than many other things 😂
@@OGCars I know! I once had a 2005 Focus Cmax 2.0 TDCI. Absolutely fantastic car, 136 hp and just an Autobahn stormer.
I had to replace the EGR, glow plugs, turbo, thermostat and all at different times. It was such a pig to work on! Not difficult, but you have to remove a thousand things for every job.
Replacing the turbo is something that still gives me nightmares, it's buried behind the engine, you have to remove every fcuking thing and also undo the left motor mount, slide the engine forward so you can wrangle the air intake from the airbox to the turbo.
Never again.
@@jochenstacker7448 a lot of modern stuff is a nightmare to work on to be fair, it is annoying! We much prefer the older stuff, it’s a lot easier to work on in most cases (not the Nissan 300 mind…)
For the door handle use WD40. It sorts the problem out :)
Oh, very nice Panda indeed :) btw, I have the same problem with the door handle (also left rear door) and the biggest problem is everytime someone new drives with me, I have to explain them when we set off why the doors just don't close and what they have to do :D
Haha always the way, we ought to finally sort it out but never seem to get around to it!
I feel in love With the panda 169. Im a german and I call the Panda Dotterei. I know crazy word. Its my best friend. 😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘🥰😍🥰
very interesting thank you

Nice ride, I think I’ll start looking for one to take off road and play with
Cheers Mark, it’s a good idea I think, just have a good look at the rear axles and some are starting to rust through at the mountings on these and they’re a hard find! UK Panda 4x4 group may yield some good results if you do look for one!
Just bought one today on ebay for 1.5k 2005 reg. How much did you pay mind me asking?
Good stuff! I'll be honest I can't quite remember the figure but it was a little less than you paid there, and we sold after a little work for just over that
I have the same car.Very difficult to get the parts.
In the UK most parts are easily obtained bar the rear subframe anyway! (2wd rear subframes are easy to find but not 4x4 ones)
