Fiat cinquecento, Fiat seicento and fiat panda ( 1 and 2 ), all have 1.1 variants. Is it the same engine? Are there differences?

In an ADAC (German Automobile Club) crash statistics, it was found that the W123 was the model with the fewest breakdowns. In 1982, the magazine Auto Motor und Sport (Germany) carried out a study which revealed that, in the case of the 200D model, an average mileage of 852,777 km(530.000 miles) was reached before the first serious repair. It is estimated that around 200,000 such cars still circulate, both on the streets of Germany but especially in the Middle East and Africa.

It’s much fun to run up to 11000rpm. Bought one this year that was standing more that 10 years. After 3 months it’s now running as new. Spare Parts are also cheap. It’s so much fun to run a bike with carburator.

Well done my friend..You speak truly,I like your energy,you are honest about what you prefer or not. I agree with you about the more new cars that is a big PC screens without physical buttons, voice command to open doors in many manufacturers .. That's for me is districting your attention from driving, it's isn't give you something. Yes I like electronics Systems for safety as abs, traction control, stability..One screen is ok from factory in the middle to have a gps. Of you have simple screen you can have a mobile device with goggle maps and you aren ok. The button you asking for in the dush is for fitting the manufacturer base for the screen if you want navigation..I just bought the same car before 2 day's In Nederland 🇨🇵. 0,9 TWINAIR turbo 105 hp .2 cylinder engine but amazing acceleration and if you choose the eco program you have also in a Big trip very good gasoline consumption overall.. One more thing to ask you. You have the same engine I think or with less power. But still 0,9 TWINAIR.. Have you ever big issues with problems from engine or transmission or something else that cost big amount of money?

My 2006 X5 is PERFECT. I hope I can drive it forever. It has a key that goes in a hole to start the car, it has a REAL gear shifter that goes into PARK without a F’ing BUTTON!!! And there’s no stupid touch screens ANYWHERE 🎉🎉🎉

a company i work at uses one of these, looks like S trim, has nothing but the top engine a bit run down, lots of little rust spots and scratches, suspension squeaks and rattles, but i love it anyway when i was starting out there it felt so fast, can't count how many close calls i had in it the good thing is it's not really that quick so for a beginner driver it's really as good as they come only real issues i had with it were blown fuse and starter motor that works again after push start

A car with good big wheels, all safety, polstring etc could be small if it did not have a front seat for passenger, maybe just a half "seat" beside the driver with a lock (to store groceries etc. ) New cars get broader and broader. In my neighbourhood two modern cars cannot meet. The roads are to narrow. There are also problems to open the door at parking spaces. You could have one (instead of two) spacier rear seat behind the drivers seat. Often people drive alone or with only one passenger. Building big cars for personal use is waste of resources. If you keep the car tall as a suv, 4 wheel drive, fully equiped and with all solidity, it might get enough respect even at the highways...I imagine...

@@MillerCorner 👍We talked before, I'm a Seicento fanatic too, but I drive the elettra version now (made for nurses in Rome from 1997-2002). Sadly I got rid of my yellow sporting, because parking permits for combustion engine cars in my city became insane, so now it is the EV Seicento. Keeping the charm but electronically limited to 100km/h top speed I kid you not.

Seems a little unnecessary as you could just use your phone and an fm receiver (£10 ish). The only thing I'm thinking is that you can legally prod this whilst driving and your phone you can't. Might be wrong about that, though.

I’m gonna be less enthusiastic here: I don’t see the point in these kind of devices. You can accomplish the same functionality by mounting your actual phone to the windscreen and just buying a cheap FM transmitter. And even if the mount was perfect, the idea of having a middle-man between your phone and the car radio with wires to deal with and extra things to turn on when driving off… is just a rather clunky solution in my opinion. That being said, the design of single-DIN aftermarket radios has been terrible for the last 20 years… 99% of them look like glossy hideous spaceships that do not fit the look of ANY car dashboard. Which is really weird when you think about it, because the only people that are probably going to be buying aftermarket radios in the last 20 years are people with cars from the 90s or earlier with cars that need matt/clean looking radios. I think most Fiats since the 80s have had single-DIN or double-DIN spaces for radios. As for the Mercedes, is there no fascia adapter for it? I’d be surprised if nobody’s made one. If not, I’d stick with a cassette adapter or FM transmitter. The FM transmitter is likely to be slightly better quality sound, but the cassette adapter won't require power to operate. But if you can change the radio, that's the better option. It looks better, sounds better and is the most seamless experience. Blaupunkt tends to do decent looking ones still, they’ve even got a retro range (although they’re horribly overpriced!) A bit of googling will give you forum threads where people post past and present models of various brands where they look decent. Finally, the IT technician in me needs point out: You mention the Ohrex is mirroring your phone screen via data and if you had better phone signal it would be snappier; but I’m pretty sure Android Auto links to your phone via Bluetooth. The fact that it’s laggy is probably just down to the kit inside the Ohrex… which underneath is probably just a cheap Android tablet.
